Mexican temperate forests, at the southernmost end of the distribution range of this ecosystem, are the world centre of diversity of pine and oak with 55 and 161 species, respectively. Such forests are threatened by land-use change, unsustainable forest management practices and climate change; these threats reduce their diversity, alter the distribution ranges of species, modify disturbance regimes and reduce ecosystem adaptability. This paper briefly reviews (1) the ecology of the Mexican temperate forests, (2) the ecological basis for the unique diversity of pine and oak species, (3) the main disturbances as well as the main drivers of global changes affecting these forests, in particular climate change, and (4) the social, economic and c...
