Range and Elevational Shifts of Mistletoes Under Future Climate Change Scenarios. [PDF]
Mistletoes are particularly vulnerable to climate change because of their obligate dependence on host plants. We investigated how climate change will alter the distribution of suitable habitat of Mesoamerican Psittacanthus mistletoes. Species differences were found in distribution with northward and upward shifts accompanied by significant range size ...
