Investments for the next 4 years
(only in Brazil)
• US$ 17,4 millions per year• 268 areas per year• Total area can be close to 16
millions hectares

Definition of priorities is necessary
• Combination of irreplaceability and vulnerability
• Conservation status is not the best surrogate for vulnerability
• Ex.: same species, same conservation status, different pressures on its habitat in different regions
• Human pressure on natural ecosystem can indicate its vulnerability
KBA meeting, Washington DC, July 2006
Definition of priorities
• Vulnerability:– Integration of variables that represents human
pressure (roads, fire, human population, population growing) attenuated by conservation opportunities (natural fragments, proximity to existing PA)
• Irreplaceability:– Metric that combines rarity and richness (summed
irreplaceability)

Issues
• Prioritization is necessary • The process must be oriented by efficiency
(cost/benefit)• Data on species biology/ecology are
necessary for most of the taxa• Integration of biodiversity data and landscape
is necessary. Two steps:– reserve selection (KBA priorization)– reserve design (KBA delineation)
