Diversity and Conservation of Mesoamerican Bees: Relative Effects of Three Major Threats Within the Potential Distribution of Bee Species -- Chapter 12. Threats to Ant Diversity in Mesoamerica -- Chapter 13. The Role of Endemism and Biodiversity Hotspots In Conservation: A Case Study with Neotropical Leaf Litter Weevils -- Chapter 14.

Biodiversity of Aquatic Insects in the Neotropics: Perspectives and Challenges.

This book provides for the first time an integrative analysis of the major drivers of decline and threats of insects and related arthropods in the Neotropical region. Thus, it is an urgent first step towards filling an information gap in this region. It identifies the main causes of decline, provides and discusses examples from the better-studied insect faunas to develop and advance principles and practical conservation management for the rich Neotropical insect faunas. The book is aimed at students, naturalists, environmental managers, and others who have training in entomology/insect ecology and can apply the results of surveys of key insect faunas to assess their vulnerability to environmental change and establish guidelines for their conservation.
