Indeed, the majority are absent from most places and where they do occur they are usually quite rare. This text discusses the structure of these distributions, especially the factors that determine geographic range and related information.Oxford series in ecology and evolution.Oxford scholarship online.BiogeographyBiogeography.577Gaston Kevin J.0StDuBDSUkStDuBDSZStDuBDSZBOOK9910954617803321The stucture and dynamics of geographic ranges4527304UNINA
