Limited complementarity of functional and taxonomic diversity in Chilean benthic marine invertebrates
Loreto Pino,
Thomas J. Webb
Abstract:AimPatterns of benthic biodiversity at the macroecological scale remain poorly characterised throughout the Chilean latitudinal gradient, in part due to the lack of integrated databases, uneven sampling effort, and the use of species richness alone to quantify biodiversity. Different diversity measures, encompassing taxonomic and functional components, may give us extra information on biodiversity relevant to conservation planning and management. Thus, evaluating the spatial complementarity of these measures i… Show more
