Changing lenses to assess biodiversity: patterns of species richness in sub-Antarctic plants and implications for global conservation

Abstract: Taxonomic groups and ecoregions shape the “lenses” through which biodiversity is assessed and conserved. A historical bias toward vertebrates and vascular plants in the northern hemisphere underpins how global patterns of biodiversity in terrestrial ecosystems are perceived. Here, we focus on the hitherto overlooked non‐vascular flora (liverworts and mosses) in the remote sub‐Antarctic Magellanic ecoregion of southwestern South America. We report that: (1) this ecoregion hosts outstanding non‐vascular floristi… Show more
