Explaining local species diversity

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 1995
In this paper we examine the explanations for local species diversity. Using six extensive data-sets for drosophilid flies (which include both temperate and tropical species) we compare three major categories of explanation (Cornell & Lawton 1992): niche heterogeneity (resource partitioning), spatial heterogeneity (intraspecific aggregation), and the ...

Relationship between species diversity and ecotope diversity

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2010
The relationship between species diversity and ecotope diversity has long been debated. But these debates seem meaningless because most of them were based on different definitions. In this paper, diversity has two components: richness based on the total number and evenness based on the relative abundance.

Predation and species diversity

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1974
Except for doubtful interactions with interference competition and density-dependent extinction, equivalent predation cannot increase the number of species of prey.

Species diversity, functional diversity, and ecosystem functioning

2002
Abstract Experiments assessing the effects of biodiversity on ecosystem functioning initially aimed at establishing whether such relationships exist (e.g. Naeem et al. 1995; Tilman et al. 1996; Jonsson and Malmqvist 2000; Engelhardt and Ritchie 2001).
