摘要

了解贝塔多样性模式的决定因素对于生态学和自然保护非常重要。然而,很少有脊椎动物研究是在历史自然过程形成的植被遗迹景观中进行的。对于鸟类,只评估了遗迹与周围栖息地或其他遗迹之间的相似性。在此,我们评估了阿根廷北部干查科生态区瓜萨扬山脉一处植被遗迹景观中鸟类贝塔多样性模式的决定因素。在这一地貌中,潮湿的山坡上生长着潮湿森林的遗迹,而干燥的山坡和山麓则生长着典型的干查科地区的干燥森林。这些栖息地有三个鸟类群落,它们在该地区的代表性各不相同。我们评估了不同栖息地的环境差异是否决定了当地鸟类 beta 的多样性(物种替换假说)。我们发现,栖息地特征与鸟类群落之间存在明显的相关性,最相似栖息地之间的鸟类贝塔多样性较低,物种更替比嵌套性更重要,与干查科和潮湿森林密切相关的鸟类在物种更替中占主导地位。这些发现支持物种更替假说。与其他森林遗迹一样,该遗迹证明,从长远来看,一个孤立的生境片段可能会导致与该生境密切相关的物种消失,但同时仍能保持该地区独特的鸟类群落。因此,在地方尺度上,遗迹对保护管理非常重要,而在生物地理尺度上,遗迹则表明与特定栖息地密切相关的物种面临灭绝的风险。

Determinants of bird beta diversity patterns in a landscape with a relict habitat in northern Argentina

Determinants of bird beta diversity patterns in a landscape with a relict habitat in northern Argentina

Understanding the determinants of beta diversity patterns is important in ecology and conservation. However, few vertebrate studies have been conducted in landscapes with relict vegetation formed by historical natural processes. For birds, only similarities between relicts and surrounding habitats or other relicts were assessed. Here, we evaluated the determinants of bird beta diversity patterns in a landscape with relict vegetation in the Guasayán mountain range, Dry Chaco ecoregion, northern Argentina. In this landscape, a relict of humid forest develops on the humid slope, whereas dry forests typical of the Dry Chaco develop on the dry slopes and piedmont. These habitats, which harbor three bird communities, differ in their representativeness of the region. We evaluated if the environmental differences among habitats determine bird beta diversity at the local scale (species replacement hypothesis). We found a significant correlation between habitat characteristics and bird communities, a lower bird beta diversity between the most similar habitats, a dominance of species turnover over nestedness, and a species turnover dominated by birds closely associated with the Dry Chaco and humid forests. These findings support the species replacement hypothesis. As other forest relicts, this relict evidences that, in the long-term, an isolated habitat fragment can undergo the loss of species closely associated with that habitat, while maintaining a distinctive bird community in the region. Thus, at the local scale, relicts are important for conservation management, and at the biogeographic scale, they indicate the risk of the extinction of species closely associated with particular habitats.

期刊介绍: Community Ecology, established by the merger of two ecological periodicals, Coenoses and Abstracta Botanica was launched in an effort to create a common global forum for community ecologists dealing with plant, animal and/or microbial communities from terrestrial, marine or freshwater systems. Main subject areas: (i) community-based ecological theory; (ii) modelling of ecological communities; (iii) community-based ecophysiology; (iv) temporal dynamics, including succession; (v) trophic interactions, including food webs and competition; (vi) spatial pattern analysis, including scaling issues; (vii) community patterns of species richness and diversity; (viii) sampling ecological communities; (ix) data analysis methods.
