Phylogenetic balance and ecological evenness.

Systematic biology - 1 Dec 2002

Webb Campbell O, Pitman Nigel C A

Abstract excerpt

The frequency distribution of numbers of species in taxonomic groups, where many species belong to a few very diverse higher taxa, is mirrored by that of species in most communities, where many individuals belong to a few very abundant species. Various hypotheses mechanistically link a species' community abundance with the diversity of the higher level taxon (genus, family, order) to which it belongs, but...
