Should phylogenetic and functional diversity metrics compose macroinvertebrate multimetric indices for stream biomonitoring?
(Springer, 2015-02-01)
The idea behind multimetric indices is to integrate information from several metrics to provide a general classification of water bodies without losing the particularities of each individual metric. Historically, multimetric ...
Classification and sensitivity of taxonomic and functional diversity indices of anurans in the Andean coffee cultural landscape
Taxonomical and functional facets of diversity are crucial to imderstanding the effects of landscape transformaron on species assemblages, although there is a lack of consensus on the degree of congruence between diversity’ ...
El ensamble de invertebrados y la calidad del agua: indicadores taxonómicos y funcionales en arroyos pampeanos
(Instituto de Limnología "Dr. Raúl Ringuelet", 2009-06)
The use of benthic invertebrates is considerate and recognized at present as one of the better methodological alternative to detect early modifications or contamination from diffuse origin. The objective of this work was ...
Homogenization and impoverishment of taxonomic and functional diversity of ants in Eucalyptus plantations
(2018-12-01)
Despite its negative impacts on the environment and biodiversity, tree plantations can contribute to biodiversity conservation in fragmented landscapes, as they harbor many native species. In this study, we investigated ...
Functional biogeography of coastal marine invertebrates along the south-eastern Pacific coast reveals latitudinally divergent drivers of taxonomic versus functional diversity
(John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2023)
Characterizing the spatial structure of taxonomic and functional diversity (FD) of marine organisms across regional and latitudinal scales is essential for improving our understanding of the processes driving species ...
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 ...
Diversity of plants and mammals as indicators of the effects of land management types in woodlands
(Springer, 2021-12)
Background: The ecological indicators are useful tools to determine the effects of human disturbances on woodland biodiversity. Nevertheless, ecological indicators not always responded in the same way to disturbances, and ...
Influence of forest cover and mesohabitat types on functional and taxonomic diversity of fish communities in Neotropical lowland streams
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012-07-01)
In this study, we investigated how taxonomic and functional diversity of fish communities is influenced by forest cover and mesohabitat types in Neotropical lowland streams. We sampled fish fauna of 126 five-metre-long ...
