Abstract
Cover description: A shovelnose ray rests in the sand beneath a jetty. Sharks and rays are a vulnerable group of animals that are traded for food, for medicine, and for their skins. Correspondence articles in this month's issue by Orion Goodman, Jonathan Kolby and Jamie Reaser discuss the challenge of monitoring trade in wild species; and Gerard Ryan and coauthors consider the question of whether ecologists should publicise discoveries of interesting plants and animals that they discover. For many marine organisms, public awareness and the regulation of trade can make the difference between survival and extinction. Photo Credit: G.S. Cumming
期刊介绍:
Conservation Letters is a reputable scientific journal that is devoted to the publication of both empirical and theoretical research that has important implications for the conservation of biological diversity. The journal warmly invites submissions from various disciplines within the biological and social sciences, with a particular interest in interdisciplinary work. The primary aim is to advance both pragmatic conservation objectives and scientific knowledge. Manuscripts are subject to a rapid communication schedule, therefore they should address current and relevant topics. Research articles should effectively communicate the significance of their findings in relation to conservation policy and practice.
