STEEGE, H. ter; PITMAN, N. C. A.; KILEEN, T. J.; LAURANCE, W. F.; PERES, C. A.; GUEVARA, J. E.; SALOMÃO, R. P.; CASTILHO, C. V.; AMARAL, I. L.Estimates of extinction risk for Amazonian plant and animal species are rare and not often incorporated into land-use policy and conservation planning. We overlay spatial distribution models with historical and projected deforestation to show that at least 36% and up to 57% of all Amazonian tree species are likely to qualify as globally threatened under International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red ...

The Brazilian Program for Biodiversity Research (PPBio) Information System.
PEZZINI, F. F.; MELO, P. H. A. DE; OLIVEIRA, D. M. S. DE; AMORIM, R. X. DE; FIGUEIREDO, F. O. G. DE; DRUCKER, D. P.; RODRIGUES, F. R. DE O.; ZUQUIM, G.The database of the Brazilian Program for Biodiversity Research (PPBio; GIVD ID SA-BR-001) includes data on the environment and biological groups such as plants. It is organized by site, which is usually a grid with 10 to 72 uniformly-distributed plots, and has already surveyed 1,638 relevés across different Brazilian ecosystems. The sampling design is based on the RAPELD system to allow integration of data fro...
