“…Only a small fraction of these species is distributed in protected areas indicating a strong conservation gap (Amarli et al, 2016). Thus, focusing on the conservation of the identified hotspots, ideally refined by using data from the entire flora and relevant animal groups, and applying dedicated software such as Marxan (Ball et al, 2009;Mendoza-Fernández et al, 2015) will assist to protect a high number of threatened narrowly distributed taxa.…”

“…These are among the most species-rich plant families in Turkey and constitute a significant proportion of the endemic flora of Turkey (c. 30%). In order to identify CEs, three biodiversity indices, i.e., Endemic Richness (ER), Rangerestricted Endemic Richness (RER), and Weighted Endemic Richness (WER; referred to as Endemism Richness by Kier et al, 2009), were applied (Crisp et al, 2001;Linder, 2001); in order to identify AEs, Endemicity Analysis (Szumik et al, 2002) was used, which has been successfully applied in different parts of the world (Martínez-Hernández et al, 2015;Mendoza-Fernández et al, 2015;Szumik and Goloboff, 2015;Elías and Aagesen, 2016;Hoffmeister and Ferrari, 2016;Zhang et al, 2016;Weirauch et al, 2017;Noroozi et al, 2018). We address the following questions: (1) Where are the CEs and AEs in Turkey?…”

“…The higher the number of endemic species in the area and the higher the endemicity of those species, the more likely it is for a group of cells to be considered an "area of endemism" (Szumik & Goloboff 2004). Nowadays, this programme is widely used (Ferrari et al 2010;Mendoza-Fernández et al 2014). The information was obtained from 10×10 km grid cells.…”

“…En este adverso contexto lito-edáfico para la ocupación biológica, y bajo un clima subhúmedohúmedo mediterráneo, cuya sequedad estival queda en cierta medida atenuada por criptoprecipitación derivada de la nubosidad de retención asociada al viento de levante, se pueden diferenciar tres pisos bioclimáticos, cuya aparición en altitud quedará condicionada por las diferencias de exposición solana-umbría: termomediterráneo (hasta los 600-800 m de altitud), mesomediterráneo (desde los 600-800 hasta los 1200-1400 m de altitud) y supramediterráneo (a partir de los 1200-1400 m de altitud) (Gómez Zotano, 2004a;Gómez-Zotano et al, 2016). En dichas franjas bioclimáticas se desarrolla una vegetación y flora de alto valor ecológico como Boletín de la Asociación de Geógrafos Españoles, 80, 2667, 1-34 consecuencia no solo de los condicionamientos edáficos, sino por el hecho de tratarse de un territorio de encrucijada geográfica, situado entre dos continentes y dos grandes masas de agua -Europa y África, y Océano Atlántico y Mar Mediterráneo respectivamente-, que constituye un área refugio de flora y uno de los mayores centros de especiación a efectos tipológicos, paisajísticos y fisiográficos de la vegetación mediterránea en el sur de la península ibérica (Alba-Sánchez et al, 2010;Cabezudo et al, 1989;Gómez-Zotano, 2004a;Gómez-Zotano et al, 2014;Mendoza-Fernández et al, 2015). En particular, el conocido "síndrome de serpentina", es decir, fenómenos de serpentinomorfosis en las plantas, provoca que buena parte de la flora de S. Bermeja sea endémica, con un buen número de taxones exclusivos del macizo -serpentinófitos- (Gómez-Zotano et al, 2014).…”
