The global biodiversity crisis is unevenly documented, with conservation assessments heavily biased toward vertebrates and flowering plants. Terrestrial gametophyte‐dominant plants (i.e., bryophytes), with over 20,000 species and representing one of Earth's oldest radiations, remain among the most overlooked. To quantify this gap, we integrated global distribution records, elevation patterns, IUCN datasets, research trends, an...

Human activities increasingly disturb biodiversity and ecosystems far beyond their immediate areas. As human activities intensify on Earth's surface, these offsite disturbances threaten biodiversity at regional and global scales. Despite their significance, offsite ecological impacts remain poorly understood, often confused with related phenomena (e.g., edge effects) and excluded from evaluation frameworks. This study clarifie...
