From communities to continents: beta diversity of herbivorous insects (2005, background): “These trends combined should result in an increasing rate of species turnover from high to low latitudes, a pattern indeed confirmed for vertebrates and plants, but no information is available on insects (Koleff et al. 2003b, Rodriguez & Arita 2004).”
The Mid‐Domain Effect: There’s a Baby in the Bathwater (2005, background): “Since the publication of CRG, recent articles have taken MDE in fruitful new directions (Bachman et al. 2004; Jetz et al. 2004; Morales et al. 2004; Rodriguez and Arita 2004; Arita 2005; Cardelús et al. 2005; Connolly 2005; Davies et al. 2005; Hernández et al. 2005; Herzog et al. 2005; Lusk et…”
The latitudinal gradient of beta diversity in relation to climate and topography for mammals in North America (2009, unknown): “We include all continental mammals, in contrast to studies separating bats from non-volant mammals, because north of 30 ° N, most mammalian faunas have fewer than 10 species of bats (Rodríguez & Arita, 2004).”
Drivers of β‐diversity along latitudinal gradients revisited (2013, background): “Rodríguez & Arita (2004) also showed that the higher diversity of non-volant mammals in tropical areas of North America is a consequence of the increase in b-diversity towards the tropical areas.”
The variation of tree beta diversity across a global network of forest plots (2012, background): “Only recently have efforts been made to describe and compare the amount of beta diversity found in different areas (e.g. van Rensburg et al., 2004; Rodríguez & Arita, 2004; Harborne et al., 2006; Gaston et al., 2007; McKnight et al., 2007; Melo et al., 2009) or measured at different scales (e.g.…”
A diversity of beta diversities: straightening up a concept gone awry. Part 1. Defining beta diversity as a function of alpha and gamma diversity (2010, background): “…1994, Weiher and Boylen 1994, Gray 2000, Perelman et al. 2001, Vellend 2001, Arita and Rodrı́guez 2002, Ellingsen and Gray 2002, Harrison and Inoye 2002, Rodrı́guez and Arita 2004, Wiersma and Urban 2005, Lira-Noriega et al. 2007, Passy and Blanchet 2007, Arita et al. 2008, Gallardo-Cruz et al.…”
A new statistical approach for assessing similarity of species composition with incidence and abundance data (2004, background): “…patterns of dispersal or may be driven by increasing environmental heterogeneity at greater scales (Harte et al. 1999; Hubbell 2001; Balvanera et al. 2002; Chave & Leigh 2002; Condit et al. 2002; Duivenvoorden et al. 2002; Ruokolainen & Tuomisto 2002; Rodrı́guez & Arita 2004; Valencia et al. 2004).”
