Elevational species richness gradients in a hyperdiverse insect taxon: a global meta-study on geometrid moths (2017, background): “environment across taxonomic groups, is still underdeveloped (e.g., via thermoregulatory traits; Buckley et al., 2012).”
Morphological traits are linked to the cold performance and distribution of bees along elevational gradients (2016, background): “In true ectothermic organisms this would constrain foraging activities to hours with high temperatures (Bishop & Armbruster, 1999; Buckley et al., 2012).”
Food resources and vegetation structure mediate climatic effects on species richness of birds (2014, background): “By contrast, active control of their body temperature enables endotherms to survive in a wider range of climatic conditions than ectotherms (Porter & Kearney, 2009; Buckley et al., 2012).”
Ant assemblages have darker and larger members in cold environments (2016, unknown): “Ectotherm metabolism is largely dependent on ambient temperature and, because of this, their performance and geographical distribution is strongly influenced by temperature gradients (Buckley et al., 2012).”
Towards a mechanistic understanding of the responses of large terrestrial mammals to heat and aridity associated with climate change (2016, background): “The upper critical limit of the thermoneutral zone has been advocated as an index to predict the sensitivity and vulnerability of mammals to heat associated with climate change (for example, [12, 72, 73]).”
