Environmental drivers of species composition and functional diversity of dung beetles along the Atlantic Forest–Pampa transition zone

2019-08-01

Abstract excerpt

Human activities are causing a rapid loss of biodiversity, which impairs ecosystem functions and services. Therefore, understanding which processes shape how biodiversity is distributed along spatial and environmental gradients is a first step to guide conservation and management efforts. We aimed to determine the relative explanatory importance of biogeographic, environmental, landscape and spatial variables on a...
