Pollination and restoration by Dixon, Kingsley

“…This deficiency in the knowledge needed to restore pollinator capability represents a major liability in restoration programs, particularly in regions where specialist invertebrate and vertebrate pollinators exist, such as global biodiversity hotspots. When compounded with the likely negative impacts of climate change on pollination services, the need to understand and manage pollinator services in restoration becomes paramount.…”

The longest-lived spider: Mygalomorphs dig deep, and persevere by Mason, Leanda, Wardell-Johnson, Grant, Main, B.

“…Annual monitoring of this species of burrowing, sedentary mygalomorph spider yielded not only this record-breaking discovery but also invaluable information for high-priority conservation taxa within a global biodiversity hotspot. We suggest that the life-styles of short-range endemics provide lessons for humanity and sustainable living in old stable landscapes.…”

Higher taxon surrogacy and the reassembly of a forest spider (Araneae) assemblage following prescribed burning by Majer, Jonathan, Brennan, Karl, Ashby, Lachlan

“…Spiders were sampled at sites representing a chronosequence of increasing ages since burning (0, 3, 6 and 9 years) by pitfall trapping and vacuuming from understorey vegetation in the South-west Botanical Province of Australia; a global biodiversity hotspot.…”

Habitat heterogeneity promotes intraspecific trait variability of shrub species in Australian granite inselbergs by De Smedt, P., Ottaviani, G., Wardell-Johnson, Grant, Sýkora, K., Mucina, L.

“…We investigated how habitat heterogeneity on granite inselbergs affected intraspecific trait variability of 19 functional traits in three shrub species of the family Proteaceae in south western Australia, a global biodiversity hotspot. We used pairwise comparison (single trait) and multivariate analysis (multiple traits, functional space) to detect shifts in trait patterns. …”

A review of the international framework for access and benefit sharing of genetic resources with special reference to the Nagoya Protocol by Ansari, Abdul Haseeb, Laxman, Lekha

“…‘Green developmentalism’ through the application of market instruments to nature is expected to impede the loss of global biodiversity. The Nagoya Protocol on Access and Benefit Sharing of Genetic Resources is also premised upon the idea that market instruments can achieve optimal allocation of the benefits of nature. …”
