Description :
This study suggests that, as in the past, future declines in more widespread species may be overlooked because in practice a full assessment across their geographic range is difficult to achieve. The AA. believe that conservation tools to identify and alleviate declines in common and widespread species should emerge that complement those already in place that focus on rare and restricted range species.
