“…Temperature was the strongest driver of both taxonomic and functional β-diversity, with unique effects of environmental variables explaining the most significant variation of both facets of β-diversity. Temperature is a major driver of butterfly taxonomic and functional β-diversity as it significantly affects their physiology [ 83 , 84 , 89 ]. Additionally, processes such as dispersal limitation and evolutionary history seem to play a role, albeit weaker than environmental filtering, in shaping butterfly communities as was indicated by the relative importance of geographical distance and its unique effects.…”

“…Understanding the processes and mechanisms that shape the distribution patterns and variations of biodiversity along environmental gradients remains a priority for ecological research, especially in the study of community ecology and the potential effects of global change (Aarnio & Soininen, 2021 ; Jamoneau et al., 2018 ; Meynard et al., 2011 ). Meanwhile, clarifying the driving of biodiversity decline is also important for achieving biodiversity conservation goals and developing effective strategies for management decisions (Kang et al., 2018 ; Zhang et al., 2021 ; Zhou et al., 2022 ).…”

“…Alpha diversity is the variety and variability of life forms within communities (Grigoropoulou et al., 2022 ; Laliberte et al., 2020 ), and species richness is the simplest measure of alpha diversity (Kang et al., 2018 ). Taxonomic diversity is one of the most studied metrics in community ecological surveys (Zhou et al., 2022 ). However, co‐occurring species can exhibit different extents of “shared” habitat preference, functional features, or life history (Grigoropoulou et al., 2022 ; Richter et al., 2021 ; Wu et al., 2017 ).…”
