Abstract: | Aim Positive regional correlations between biodiversity and human population
have been detected for several taxonomic groups and geographical regions.
Such correlations could have important conservation implications and have
been mainly attributed to ecological factors, with little testing for an artefactual
explanation: more populated regions may show higher biodiversity because they
are more thoroughly surveyed. We tested the hypothesis that the correlation
between people and herptile diversity in Europe is influenced by survey effort |
