The positive association between natural vegetation, native coccinellids and functional diversity of aphidophagous coccinellid communities in alfalfa
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2021)
© 2021 The Royal Entomological SocietyA greater taxonomic and functional diversity of natural enemies in agroecosystems is frequently positively associated with more effective pest control, due to the complementarity of ...
Thresholds in the relationship between functional diversity and patch size for mammals in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2015-12-01)
Patch size affects abundance and diversity of mammal species, but there is little information on threshold regarding this relationship or relating it to functional diversity. Therefore, we aimed with this study to (1) ...

Functional and Taxonomic Diversity of Stinging Wasps in Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest Areas
(Entomological Soc Brasil, 2014-04-01)
Vespoidea are the most functionally diverse superfamily of Hymenoptera. Ecological studies involving this family are primarily based on eusocial groups, including ants and social paper wasps. In the present study, we examine ...
Exotic species modify the functional diversity patterns of freshwater fish assemblages in continental Chile: Examining historical and geographical patterns
(Elsevier, 2020)
The Neotropical region is an important reservoir of functional diversity of freshwater fish in the world. Recent studies have shown that functional and taxonomic diversity in this region has increased as a consequence of ...
Beta diversity of stream insects differs between boreal and subtropical regions, but land use does not generally cause biotic homogenization
(2021-03-01)
Previous studies have found mixed results regarding the relationship between beta diversity and latitude. In addition, by influencing local environmental heterogeneity, land use maymodify spatial taxonomic and functional ...
