Different elevational patterns of rodent species richness between the southern and northern slopes of a mountain

Abstract Studies on elevational gradients in biodiversity have accumulated in recent decades. However, few studies have compared the elevational patterns of diversity between the different slopes of a single mountain. We investigated the elevational distribution of rodent diversity (alpha and beta d...
