Miquel Capó Servera

Dr. Miquel Capó Servera is a Professor at the University of the Balearic Islands (UIB) specializing in plant biology and ecology. He teaches multiple courses including Applied Botany to the Work World, Pharmaceutical Botany, Botany II (Cormophytes), and Basic Field Operations for both Biology and Pharmacy degree programs at the Mallorca campus. His academic responsibilities span across the 2024-25 and upcoming 2025-26 academic years, indicating active faculty status.

Professor Capó Servera's research focuses on Mediterranean flora, plant ecology, and conservation biology. His work particularly addresses the challenges facing endemic plant species in island ecosystems, interactions between plants and herbivores, and the impacts of invasive species. His expertise spans plant systematics, pollination ecology, and the conservation of threatened Mediterranean plant communities, with special attention to orchids and other endemic species.

His recent publication record shows consistent output in plant ecology and conservation, with particular emphasis on Mediterranean island ecosystems. The research trends reveal strong focus on species conservation, plant-animal interactions, and the impacts of invasive species on native flora. His work frequently addresses practical conservation challenges including eradication programs for invasive mammals and their effects on plant population recovery.

Professor Capó Servera is an active member of two research groups at UIB: Botánica en las Islas Mediterráneas (BOTLAND), a consolidated R&D&I group focused on Mediterranean island botany, and Ecología Interdisciplinaria (ECOINT), which conducts interdisciplinary ecological research. These affiliations demonstrate his integration within the university's research infrastructure and collaborative scientific networks.
