The ratio of species extinctions to introductions has been comparable for many insular assemblages, suggesting that introductions could have ‘compensated’ for extinctions. However, the capacity for introduced species to replace ecological roles and evolutionary history lost following extinction is unclear. We investigated changes in bird functional and phylogenetic diversity in the wake of extinctions...
Ecological and evolutionary mechanisms that drive community assembly vary in space and time. However, little is known about how such mechanisms act in contrasting habitats. Here, we estimated the functional and phylogenetic structure of forest and savanna bird assemblages across different spatial scales to understand: 1) the mechanisms that govern the structure of assemblages in these habitats; 2)...
Systematic conservation planning is traditionally based on biological features, sometimes representing a single biodiversity component, such as top predators. However, few studies have tested the efficiency of traditional spatial prioritizations to capture the phylogenetic and functional diversity of entire faunas. Here, we evaluated (1) the congruence among spatial prioritization analyses based on...
