Ground‐dwelling mammal diversity responds positively to productivity and habitat heterogeneity in a fire‐prone region

Abstract Environmental heterogeneity has a consistent, positive effect on species diversity globally, principally due to increased niche space in heterogeneous environments. In flammable ecosystems, fire‐mediated heterogeneity (pyrodiversity) is expected to increase species diversity, and the applic...
