Endemism is the ecological state of being unique to a defined geographic location, such as an island, nation or other defined zone, or habitat type; organisms that are indigenous to a place are not endemic to it if they are also found elsewhere. For example, all species of lemur are endemic to the island of Madagascar; none are native elsewhere. The extreme opposite of endemism is cosmopolitan distribution.
Physical, climatic, and biological factors can contribute to endemism. The Orange-breasted Sunbird is exclusively found in the fynbos vegetation zone of southwestern South Africa. Political factors can play a part if a species is protected, or actively hunted, in one jurisdiction but not another.
There are two subcategories of endemism - paleoendemism and neoendemism. Paleoendemism refers to a species that was formerly widespread but is now restricted to a smaller area. Neoendemism refers to a species that has recently arisen such as a species that has diverged and become reproductively isolated, or one that has formed following hybridization and is now classified as a separate species. This is a common process in plants, especially those that exhibit polyploidy.

Marine ecology in easter island
Marine ecology in easter islandMarine ecology in easter island
Easter Island is the most isolated inhabited island in the world, over 3,000 kilometers from the Chilean coast. At about 29 degrees South, it is the southern limit to the range in which corals can thrive, and its extreme isolation has led to a depauperate marine community with extremely high endemism. However, whereas coral reefs around the world are currently in decline, reefs at Easter Island appear to have been increasing in coral cover for the last several decades from an algal-dominated state. Researchers from Chile and the US sought to determine how the small regional species pool and isolated oceanographic position of Easter Island mig -

Endemismo, es un término utilizado en biología para indicar que la distribución de un taxón limitada a un ámbito geográfico. El endemismo puede considerarse dentro de un abanico muy amplio de escalas geográficas- Así, un organismo puede ser endémico de una cima montañosa o un lago, de una cordillera o un sistema fluvial, de una isla, de un país o incluso de un continente. Normalmente el concepto se aplica a especies, pero también puede usarse para subespecies, géneros, familias u otras entidades taxonómicas o taxones.

Madeira and Island Ecology
Madeira and Island EcologyMadeira and Island Ecology
Madeira is often referred to as the floating garden. The reason for this unusual name, its astonishing floral diversity. Out of the hundreds of species of plant, a high proportion of these are endemic to Madeira. Endemism is a common pattern shared by oceanic islands around the world. So why is this case? In this episode, David explores the fundamentals of island ecology, in an introduction to the subject. --- If you like this episode, or any other, why not hit that subscribe button?

Endemism is the ecological state of a species being unique to a defined geographic location, such as an island, nation, country or other defined zone, or habitat type; organisms that are indigenous to a place are not endemic to it if they are also found elsewhere. The extreme opposite of endemism is cosmopolitan distribution. Another term for a species that is endemic is precinctive, which applies to species (and subspecific categories) that are restricted to a defined geographical area. A native species, such as a native plant, is one that is considered to have been endemic for a relatively long period of time. The word endemic is from New Latin endēmicus, from Greek ενδήμος, endēmos, "native." Endēmos is formed of en, "in," and dēmos, "the people." An alternative term, precinctive, has been suggested by some scientists, and was first used by MacCaughey in 1917. It is the equivalent of ‘endemism’. Precinction was perhaps first used by Frank and McCoy. Precinctive seems to have been coined by David Sharp of the Hawaiian fauna: "I use the word precinctive in the sense of 'confined to the area under discussion' … 'precinctive forms' means those forms that are confined to the area specified." That definition excludes artificial confinement of examples by humans in far-off botanical gardens or zoological parks.

Marine ecology in easter island
- Order: Reorder
- Duration: 3:39
- Updated: 17 Feb 2015
Easter Island is the most isolated inhabited island in the world, over 3,000 kilometers from the Chilean coast. At about 29 degrees South, it is the southern limit to the range in which corals can thrive, and its extreme isolation has led to a depauperate marine community with extremely high endemism. However, whereas coral reefs around the world are currently in decline, reefs at Easter Island appear to have been increasing in coral cover for the last several decades from an algal-dominated state. Researchers from Chile and the US sought to determine how the small regional species pool and isolated oceanographic position of Easter Island might influence these changes.

BIOSFERA 10 ¿Que son los Endemismos
- Order: Reorder
- Duration: 26:38
- Updated: 29 Jan 2015
Endemismo, es un término utilizado en biología para indicar que la distribución de un taxón limitada a un ámbito geográfico.
El endemismo puede considerarse dentro de un abanico muy amplio de escalas geográficas-
Así, un organismo puede ser endémico de una cima montañosa o un lago, de una cordillera o un sistema fluvial, de una isla, de un país o incluso de un continente.
Normalmente el concepto se aplica a especies, pero también puede usarse para subespecies, géneros, familias u otras entidades taxonómicas o taxones.
El Equipo de BIOSFERA10 realizó el siguiente trabajo periodístico y ¡Esto es lo que descubrimos!

Madeira and Island Ecology
- Order: Reorder
- Duration: 5:18
- Updated: 24 Nov 2014
Madeira is often referred to as the floating garden. The reason for this unusual name, its astonishing floral diversity. Out of the hundreds of species of plant, a high proportion of these are endemic to Madeira.
Endemism is a common pattern shared by oceanic islands around the world. So why is this case? In this episode, David explores the fundamentals of island ecology, in an introduction to the subject.

Endemism
Endemism
Endemism is the ecological state of a species being unique to a defined geographic location, such as an island, nation, country or other defined zone, or habitat type; organisms that are indigenous to a place are not endemic to it if they are also found elsewhere. The extreme opposite of endemism is cosmopolitan distribution. Another term for a species that is endemic is precinctive, which applies to species (and subspecific categories) that are restricted to a defined geographical area.

Endemism
Endemism is the ecological state of a species being unique to a defined geographic location, such as an island, nation, country or other defined zone, or habitat type; organisms that are indigenous to a place are not endemic to it if they are also found elsewhere. The extreme opposite of endemism is cosmopolitan distribution. Another term for a species that is endemic is precinctive, which applies to species (and subspecific categories) that are restricted to a defined geographical area. A native species, such as a native plant, is one that is considered to have been endemic for a relatively long period of time. The word endemic is from New Latin endēmicus, from Greek ενδήμος, endēmos, "native." Endēmos is formed of en, "in," and dēmos, "the people." An alternative term, precinctive, has been suggested by some scientists, and was first used by MacCaughey in 1917. It is the equivalent of ‘endemism’. Precinction was perhaps first used by Frank and McCoy. Precinctive seems to have been coined by David Sharp of the Hawaiian fauna: "I use the word precinctive in the sense of 'confined to the area under discussion' … 'precinctive forms' means those forms that are confined to the area specified." That definition excludes artificial confinement of examples by humans in far-off botanical gardens or zoological parks.

Orchid diversity and endemism in Ecuador
Orchid diversity and endemism in Ecuador
The orchid family is is the most diverse plant family in Ecuador, and also the family with the highest number of locally endemic species. This is surprising, since orchid seeds are exceptionally good dispersers which can travel long distances. So why are there so many locally endemic orchid species? The rest of the talk explores this question. An excerpt of a talk by Lou Jost at the Carnegie Institution for Science at Stanford University, California in December 2014.
