Body size variation in insects: a macroecological perspective (2010, background): “The latter has been demonstrated several times, as has the influence of spatial turnover of higher taxa on the form of the interspecific or assemblage size cline (Hawkins & Lawton, 1995; Chown & Klok, 2003; Brehm & Fiedler, 2004).”
Body size–climate relationships of European spiders (2010, methodology): “Most studies on large-scale patterns of body size have investigated latitudinal or elevational gradients (Blackburn & Hawkins, 2004; Brehm & Fiedler, 2004; Rodrı́guez-Jimenez & Sarmiento, 2008).”
Defying the curse of ignorance: perspectives in insect macroecology and conservation biogeography (2010, background): “For example, Kubota et al. (2007) and Brehm and Fiddler (2004) analysed variation in body size (Bergmann’s rule), whereas Bektov and Mikhail (2009) showed that range sizes of mayflies expand towards higher altitudes, supporting Rapoport’s rule.”
