Quantifying Extinction Probabilities from Sighting Records: Inference and Uncertainties

Methods are needed to estimate the probability that a population is extinct, whether to underpin decisions regarding the continuation of a invasive species eradication program, or to decide whether further searches for a rare and endangered species could be warranted. Current models for inferring extinction probability based on sighting data typically assume a constant or declining sighting rat...

Estimated dates of recent extinctions for North American and Hawaiian birds

Series of sighting records – the years in which a species has been recorded – can be used to infer whether species have gone extinct, and when extinctions occurred. We compiled sighting records for 52 rare bird species, subspecies, and distinct island populations from North America and Hawaii, 38 of which proved adequate for such analyses. Using a data set that combines non-controversial sight ...

The first record of Northern pike (Esox lucius Linnaeus) in the Zrebar Lake of Marivan, Kurdistan, Iran: A preliminary observation and assessment of morphology, diet, reproduction and invasive threat

The Zrebar Lake is a most important natural freshwater Lake ecosystem in the Kurdistan Province, west of Iran.  Since Decembeer 2019, there has been reports of an unusual fish species sighting in the Zrebar Lake. This has led our efforts to set traps, capture and identify the species as Esox lucius Linnaeus. Consequently, we made further, field assessments and conducted biological study in the ...

The use of sighting records to infer species extinctions: an evaluation of different methods.

In the absence of long-term monitoring data, inferences about extinctions of species and populations are generally based on past observations about the presence of a particular species at specified places and times (sightings). Several methods have been developed to estimate the probability and timing of extinctions from records of such sightings, but they differ in their computational complexi...

The effects of climate change on the distribution of an invasive fish in Iran: Gambusia holbrooki (Girard, 1859)

Today, invasive species are considered as one of the major threats to biodiversity and ecosystem functions. The suitable habitats of these species are expected to be expanded under the effects of future climate change hence it is likely to threaten the existence of native species. Consequently, identifying the current and potential distribution range of invasive species is essential for managem...
