Why so many polyphagous fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae)? A further contribution to the 'generalism'debate
AR Clarke - Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2017 - academic.oup.com
It has been suggested that generalist herbivorous insects are an evolutionary 'improbability'.
However, many species of tephritid fruit flies are generalists utilising larval hosts across two …

Multispecies coexistence of trees in tropical forests: spatial signals of topographic niche differentiation increase with environmental heterogeneity
Neutral and niche theories give contrasting explanations for the maintenance of tropical tree
species diversity. Both have some empirical support, but methods to disentangle their effects …

Tree species composition, breeding systems, and pollination and dispersal syndromes in three forest successional stages in a tropical dry forest in Mesoamerica
Tropical dry forests (TDF) in Mesoamerica are highly endangered by the expansion of
human activities (eg, agriculture and cattle ranching). In contrast, TDF in Costa Rica have …

β-Diversity of functional groups of woody plants in a tropical dry forest in Yucatan
Two main theories have attempted to explain variation in plant species composition (β-
diversity). Niche theory proposes that most of the variation is related to environment …

Fruiting phenology of seed dispersal syndromes in a Mexican Neotropical temperate forest
By linking phenological patterns not only to climatic factors but also to plant functional traits
we may gain a better understanding of plant community function and assembly. While …
