Biodiversity Studies
Science librarian Smith (Western Kentucky U.) cites literature both on the biological study of diversity itself, and on the socio-natural science of diversity conservation. The main part lists over 5,700 monographs and articles, and the second identifies a selection of over 100 special issues of serial publications in which the main theme is related to biodiversity studies.
