- Title
Mammal Status: Diversity, Abundance and Dynamics: An Editorial.
- Authors
Balčiauskas, Linas
- Abstract
Finally, two papers analysed mammal species complexes in very different habitats, Mediterranean post-fire succession in northeastern Spain [[2]] and in coffee-growing agroforestry plots in West Java, Indonesia [[7]]. Mammals are far from being the most diverse group of vertebrates, with only 6400 extant species, but they do play an important role in ecosystems by providing essential services. As small mammals are a keystone group defining the sustainability of Mediterranean forests, the result of these events might enhance the prognosis of future mammal trends under current global changes [[2]].
