Therefore, re-evaluation of the endangered categories relying on a new systematic background is warranted; at present, these putative species should be considered as evolutionary significant units and taken into consideration for conservation planning.
Second, because it is not feasible to gather data for all species present in a region under consideration for conservation, reserve design must rely on a limited subset of species that may or may not be representative of the entire community.
In the context of Antarctic coastal benthic communities, the slow rates of recovery, high ratio of poor dispersing and brooding species, high biogenic habitat heterogeneity and spatio-temporal variability in primary production become especially important considerations for conservation.
Regional variability in the ecology of bats related to landscape factors is an important consideration for bat conservation and therefore must be incorporated into future management plans.
Management decisions underpinning availability of ecosystem services and the organisms that provide them in agroecosystems, such as pollinators and pollination services, have emerged as a foremost consideration for both conservation and crop production goals.
While hybrids are common in anthropogenic landscapes, our results suggest that even small forested landscapes serve as substantial barriers to hybrid establishment, a key consideration for butternut conservation planning, a species already exhibiting severe decline, and for other North American forest trees that hybridize with introduced congeners.
Our results highlight some important considerations for landscape conservation planning for T. pinguicolla and rupicoline (rock inhabiting) reptiles more generally.
These findings represent important considerations for the conservation of this specialist species and the management of riparian vegetation, particularly on private land.
Importantly, none of these four high-global-risk species are listed at the federal level under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), and therefore often do not receive any special protections for conservation consideration in the core of their breeding range.
Our findings identified key environmental variables, highlighted core use areas, and documented critical periods for consideration when developing conservation plans for sea ducks in urbanized estuaries.
Using deontological and utilitarian perspectives, we will examine the special considerations and ethics of cloning for conservation and cloning extinct organisms.
