Traits, trees and taxa: global dimensions of biodiversity in mammals.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 Dec 2012

Huang Shan, Stephens Patrick R, Gittleman John L

Abstract excerpt

Measures of biodiversity encompass variation along several dimensions such as species richness (SR), phylogenetic diversity (PD) and functional/trait diversity (TD). At the global scale, it is widely recognized that SR and PD are strongly correlated, but the extent to which either tends to capture variation in TD is unclear. Here, we assess relationships among PD, SR and TD for a number of traits both across...
