Butterflies of European islands: the implications of the geography and ecology of rarity and endemies over 564 European islands in 10 island groups. To determine the status of the butterfly fauna, we have adopted two approaches, island-focused and species-focused, examined using principal components analysis and regression modelling. In the former, we relate species richness, rarity and endemicit

A multidimensional characterization of rarity applied to the Aegean tenebrionid beetles (Coleopteras purpose, 170 taxa (138 species and 32 subspecies) of tenebrionid beetles from 32 Aegean Islands (Greece) were considered. For each taxon, rarity was evaluated as geographic distribution (mean incidence on islands in the archipelago), potential habitat exploitation (total area of the islands occupi

Conservation of Southern Ocean Islands: invertebrates as exemplars,ical islands. In consequence, overexploitation, pollution and habitat destruction have had little influence on the invertebrate biotas of the islands, although overexploitation of pelagic species has the potential for an indirect influence via reduction of nutrient inputs to the terrestrial systems.

Preliminary conservation status and needs of an oceanic island fauna: the case of Seychelles insecttudies of vertebrates. A recent assessment of the biodiversity of the Seychelles islands enables the status of a range of taxonomic groups to be compared. A high proportion of the fauna is found to be threatened, with Dictyoptera being the most threatened insect order (51% of 34 native species) foll

Insect conservation in early succession on islands: lessons from Surtsey, Iceland, and the Krakatauh. Some such species appear to be restricted to such extreme habitats. Persistence of such species may be governed by volcanic activity and their future thus be beyond the control of people. Surveys to determine their presence elsewhere are needed to determine their possible status as refugees in la

Conservation status and needs of butterflies (Lepidoptera) on the Torres Strait Islands, New Guinea and Australia, and several taxa are not yet known from either adjacent mainland. Lack of published biological and distributional data renders it difficult to allocate any such taxon to a conservation status other than ‘Data Deficient’, but current threats related to human land uses and t
