Functional traits and phylogeny explain snake distribution in the world's largest dry forest ecoregion, the Gran Chaco. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2022 Chacoan snakes show a latitudinal pattern of distribution, with a marked verticality. Long‐tailed species richness and verticality increases in areas with high stratified habitats and stable temperature; and short‐tailed species richness and fossoriality is driven mainly by soil conditions, especially soils with fewer sand particles and less stratified
