Food-web structure in relation to environmental gradients and predator-prey ratios in tank-bromeliad ecosystems.

Little is known of how linkage patterns between species change along environmental gradients. The small, spatially discrete food webs inhabiting tank-bromeliads provide an excellent opportunity to analyse patterns of community diversity and food-web topology (connectance, linkage density, nestedness...
