abstract = "The workshop 'Species distribution models: applications,
challenges and perspectives' held at Belo Horizonte (Brazil),
29-30 August 2011, aimed to review the state-of-the-art in species
distribution modelling (SDM) in the neotropical realm. It brought
together researchers in ecology, evolution, biogeography and
conservation, with different backgrounds and research interests.
The application of SDM in the megadiverse neotropics-where data on
species occurrences are scarce-presents several challenges,
involving acknowledging the limitations imposed by data quality,
including surveys as an integral part of SDM studies, and
designing the analyses in accordance with the question
investigated. Specific solutions were discussed, and a code of
good practice in SDM studies and related field surveys was
drafted.",
