Local knowledge and species distribution models’ contribution towards mammalian conservation

2011-05-01

Abstract excerpt

Landscape-scale studies facilitate species diversity analysis according to environmental heterogeneity and human activity. This study was aimed at using local knowledge as a tool for testing predictive models’ validity for assessing the spatial distribution of medium-sized mammalian richness, identifying local patterns of species richness and evaluating local protected areas’ role in the conservation of mammals. D...
