Flying between sky islands: the effect of naturally fragmented habitat on butterfly population structure.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2013

Sekar Sandhya, Karanth Praveen

Abstract excerpt

High elevation montane areas are called "sky islands" when they occur as a series of high mountains separated by lowland valleys. Different climatic conditions at high elevations makes sky islands a specialized type of habitat, rendering them naturally fragmented compared to more continuous habit...
