Species richness patterns in Fijian bees are explained by constraints in physiological traits

C. R. B. da Silva, J. B. Dorey, C. S. Matthews, B. Parslow, M. Tuiwawa, J. E. Beaman, N. C. Congedi, S. J. Barker, P. M. Hughes, R. T. E. Blumson, M. I. Stevens, M. P. Schwarz, R. Gloag, V. Kellermann

This study shows that physiological traits like heat tolerance and desiccation resistance constrain bee species richness in Fijian elevational gradients, with species tracking climatic niches to higher elevations as climates warm.

Physiological traits and their relationships vary along an elevational gradient within and among Fijian bee species

C. R. B. da Silva, J. E. Beaman, M. Tuiwawa, M. I. Stevens, M. P. Schwarz, R. Gloag, V. Kellermann, L. A. Alton

This study examines how metabolic rates and gas exchange patterns vary with elevation in Fijian bees, finding support for the metabolic cold adaptation hypothesis but not the hygric hypothesis.
