Towards a mechanistic explanation of Island biogeography using subterranean animal communities

Abstract: Using subterranean fauna in the Canary Islands as a simplified natural laboratory, we explored how the interplay of eco-evolutionary processes shape taxonomic and functional diversity patterns in oceanic archipelagos through geological times. First, we demonstrated an overall convergence in the trait spaces of subterranean communities across islands, yet with variability according to each island’s ontogenetic state—young, mature, or senescent. Next, we showed that the reduced species contribution to the island… Show more
