Direct economic benefits belong to the narrowly utilitarian values of biodiversity, whereas oxygen production, pollination, and aesthetic value are broadly utilitarian values.

For most species and taxonomic groups, the slope (Z) ranges from 0.1 to 0.2. For very large areas such as continents, it may range from 0.6 to 1.2.

Biodiversity provides ecosystem services such as climate regulation, maintenance of soil fertility, pollination, nutrient cycling, and seed dispersal.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 13: Biodiversity and Conservation Species-Area Relationship
Alexander von Humboldt showed that species richness increases with explored area, and on a logarithmic scale the relationship becomes a straight line (log S = log C + Z log A).
