Using potential distributions to explore environmental correlates of bat species richness in southern Africa: Effects of model selection and taxonomy
We tested the prediction that at coarse spatial scales, variables associated with climate, energy, and productivity hypotheses should be better predictor(s) of bat species richness than those associated with environmental heterogeneity. Distribution ranges of 64 bat species were estimated with niche...
