Is the Rapoport effect widespread? Null models revisited
(Global Ecology and Biogeography, 2019)
Tree diversity and elevational gradient: The case of Lauraceae in the Atlantic Rainforest
(Elsevier B.V., 2017-09-01)
Lauraceae have an ancient evolutionary history and wide distribution, providing a great model for studies of the biogeographical distribution patterns of plant species. The effects of elevational variation on plant diversity ...
Harvestman (Arachnida : Opiliones) species distribution along three Neotropical elevational gradients: an alternative rescue effect to explain Rapoport's rule?
(Blackwell PublishingOxfordInglaterra, 2006)
Patterns of endemism in south-eastern Pacific benthic polychaetes of the Chilean coast
(BLACKWELL, 2006-04)
Aim In this study we evaluate patterns of endemism for benthic polychaete species along the southeastern Pacific coast of Chile. Our goals were (1) to describe latitudinal gradients of endemism and identify areas of high ...
Do Rapoport's rule, the mid-domain effect or the source-sink hypotheses predict bathymetric patterns of polychaete richness on the Pacific coast of South America?
(Blackwell Publishing, 2008-05)
Aim
We evaluated the bathymetric gradient of benthic polychaete species richness
from the Chilean coast, as well as its possible underlying causes. We tested three
possible hypotheses to explain the richness gradient: ...
Spider (Arachnida-Araneae) diversity in an Amazonian altitudinal gradient: Are the patterns congruent with mid-domain and rapoport effect predictions?Diversidade de aranhas (Arachnida-Araneae) em um gradiente altitudinal na amazônia. seriam os padrões congruentes com o esperado pelo efeito do dominio central e pelo efeito rapoport?
(2021-01-01)
The Mid-Domain Effect (MDE) and the Rapoport (RE) effect are two biogeographical theories that make predictions about biogeogaphic patterns. MDE predicts higher richness in the central portions of a gradient if it is within ...
Bird species diversity in the Atlantic Forest of Brazil is not explained by the Mid-domain Effect
(Sociedade Brasileira de Zoologia, 2012)
The Atlantic Forest is an excellent case study for the elevational diversity of birds, and some inventories along elevational gradients have been carried out in Brazil. Since none of these studies explain the patterns of ...
