Journal ArticleDOI

The conservation status of the world's reptiles

Monika Böhm, +243 more
TL;DR: The results provide the first analysis of the global conservation status and distribution patterns of reptiles and the threats affecting them, highlighting conservation priorities and knowledge gaps which need to be addressed urgently to ensure the continued survival of the world’s reptiles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Amphibian fungal panzootic causes catastrophic and ongoing loss of biodiversity

Ben C. Scheele, +47 more
- 29 Mar 2019 - 
TL;DR: A global, quantitative assessment of the amphibian chytridiomycosis panzootic demonstrates its role in the decline of at least 501 amphibian species over the past half-century and represents the greatest recorded loss of biodiversity attributable to a disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent shifts in the occurrence, cause, and magnitude of animal mass mortality events.

TL;DR: It is shown that the magnitude of MMEs has been intensifying for birds, fishes, and marine invertebrates; invariant for mammals; and decreasing for reptiles and amphibians; and changes in MME causes varied among taxa and may be associated with increased detectability.
Journal ArticleDOI

State of the World's Amphibians

TL;DR: The accelerated discovery of new amphibian species challenges existing conservation resources, but it is an opportunity to fill geographical gaps and to enhance programs aimed at preserving populations of host populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis and the Collapse of Anuran Species Richness and Abundance in the Upper Manu National Park, Southeastern Peru

TL;DR: Results suggest Bd may have arrived at the site between 1999 and 2007, which is consistent with the hypothesis that this pathogen is spreading in epidemic waves along the Andean cordilleras, and indicate a rapid decline of frog species richness and abundance in the study area.
