Communities have been defined as groups of organisms that interact in ways that denote interdependence between individuals and taxa (e.g. as defined by \"food webs\") but they have also been defined as groups of co-occurring organisms that are assumed to interact by virtue of their shared spatiotemporal existence. The latter definition has been debated and challenged in the literature, with mounting evidence for co-occurrence being more indicative of coincident ecological niches in space and time rather than being evidence of ecological interaction or dependency. Using a dataset of 460 Costa Rican bird species divided into breeding and non-breeding season datasets, we empirically demonstrate the ways in which co-occurrence can create illusory communities based on similar occupied ecological niches and similar patterns of co-occurrence at different times of year. We discuss the importance of discerning coincidental co-occurrence from true ecological interactions that would manifest a true community, and further address the importance of differentiating communities of co-occurrence from communities of demonstrable ecological interaction. While co-occurrence is a necessary aspect of interspecific interactions, we discuss and demonstrate here that such co-occurrence does not make a community, nor should explicit patterns of co-occurrence be seen as evidence for evolutionarily important ecological interactions.</p>","PeriodicalId":36863,"journal":{"name":"Neotropical Biodiversity","volume":"9 1","pages":"64-75"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10237366/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9575854","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein, I examined Bergmann’s rule in Carollia perspicillata and Artibeus lituratus along an elevation gradient of 2500 m at both inter- and intraspecific level. I measured 384 specimens from collections belonged to C. perspicillata (89 ♀, 102 ♂) and A. lituratus (89 ♀, 104 ♂). The size of C. perspicillata increased with increasing elevation and decreasing temperature, whereas A. lituratus showed the converse pattern. For both species, females did not differ between elevation categories, contrary to males that were larger above 1000 m in C. perspicillata, but smaller in A. lituratus. Conformity to Bergmann’s rule depends on bat size and sex. Despite C. perspicillata follows the pattern, the explanatory mechanisms still need to be understood. By contrast, A. lituratus follows the converse of Bergmann’s rule due to naked and highly vascularized wings that aid thermoregulation in warmer environments. Male size is more sensitive to changes in temperature for both species which may be partially explained by sexual selection. Elevation and temperature are not the only factors related to bat morphology and other mechanisms may explain size in bats.","PeriodicalId":36863,"journal":{"name":"Neotropical Biodiversity","volume":"8 1","pages":"200 - 221"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45945775","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Ecuador, it has a wide distribution range from the coastal zone to the Amazon. The mahogany tree is an endangered species due the overexploitation of the high commercial value of its wood. This study is aimed to characterize the Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) variability of 123 trees selected from six provinces of Ecuador. The results showed that the natural mahogany population had a low level of genetic diversity (A = 6.9; Ho = 0.39; He = 0.43) and a significant heterozygous deficit inbreeding coefficient (F = 0.16). The probability of identity (PI) of the 12 microsatellite markers was low 4.3 × 10−9 and the cumulative exclusion probability of 99.99%. Additionally, the relatedness coefficient among individuals was −0.010 (se = 0.004). The genetic diversity among populations was moderate (ΦST = 8%). In addition, the structure analysis showed two genetic groups; however, it was possible to distinguish admixture within the entire range evaluated. These results show the need to establish strategies that allow the recovery and increase of the genetic diversity in natural populations, especially with the selection of trees to harvest seeds, as well as crossing the tree genetic pool to recombine their diversity.","PeriodicalId":36863,"journal":{"name":"Neotropical Biodiversity","volume":"8 1","pages":"222 - 228"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47092661","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
