Abstract:Comparative studies require understanding the dispersal and movement capacity of species. However, it is not often possible to obtain information on this key life-history attribute in insects. Rove beetles (Staphylinidae) are the second most abundant group of epigeal invertebrates, and little is known about their dispersal abilities in tropical regions. We explored the relationship between six linear morphological body-size traits and three wing measures from 48 necrophilous rove beetle species for fitting uni… Show more
