A nested pattern (nestedness) in species composition is a frequent signature of insular communities. However, it remains unclear whether the drivers of nestedness are consistent across multiple island systems. Here, we investigated the pattern and drivers of taxonomic, functional and phylogenetic nestedness in terrestrial mammal assemblages from 10 distinct island systems (archipelagos).

对岛屿哺乳动物组合中嵌套模式的全球评估


物种组成中的嵌套模式（嵌套性）是岛屿群落的常见特征。然而，目前尚不清楚嵌套的驱动因素在多个岛屿系统中是否一致。在这里，我们研究了来自 10 个不同岛屿系统（群岛）的陆地哺乳动物群落的分类学、功能和系统发育嵌套的模式和驱动因素。
