We surveyed rarity in the vascular plants of the continental U.S.A. and Canada and the vascular plants of Hawaii to test the hypothesis that rates of rarity are independent of taxonomic group size ...
Plant species richness and range- size rarity in Africa south of the Sahara is concentrated in centres of plant diversity and endemism. Distribution patterns of plants mapped in the Distributiones ...
explicit, and they also allow representation and comparison of many different types of data.In this article I examine patterns of species richness and range- size rarity , or endemism, in the Neotropics ...
Abstract. We studied the patterns of species richness and range– size rarity (as a measure of endemism) of two plant groups (Pteridophyta, Bromeliaceae) and birds along two gradients of elevation ...
species, mammalian body size distributions and patterns of rarity in worldwide plant communities. Predicted distributions of species richness over genera or families for birds, arthropods, plants ...
[8–13]. Even with some of these advances, progress in understanding biological diversity is uneven across taxonomic groups representing different segments of the tree of life, the bias mostly ...
taxonomic sorting algorithms on these clades (2.65 × 108 simulated species) and compared the resulting genus size data with quality-controlled taxonomy of animal groups (2.8 × 105 species). ‘Perfect ...
in species-rich taxonomic groups that supply the highest number of invasive taxa such as plants (Pyšek et al. 2008). For example, 54 % of the 10 771 alien species recorded in Europe are plants (DAISIE 2009 ...
communities suggests similar sources and environmental controls of both groups . Among the communities of different levels of rarity , the conditionally rare methanogenic taxa largely account for the overall ...
). In the WRZ mountain group (Fig 5a), the two mountains (Mt Ruwenzori and Mt Muhavura) formed different parts of a continuum along axis 1, bridged by the plants taxonomically assigned to ERI-Ru ...
