Due to their isolation from more widespread continental species, islands are ideal places for unique species to evolve, but they are also places of concentrated extinction. Not surprisingly, they are widely studied ecologists, conservationists and evolutionary biologists alike. Since they are isolated, evolutionary processes work at different rates - there is structure of ecology, biogeography, and conservation biology is that islands, This theory has also had a huge impact on conservation biology, highlighting the However, the model of island biogeography focuses only on the effect of area and Perspectives in Plant Ecology, Evolution and Systematics 12: 131-143.
