Environmental heterogeneity explains coarse-scale β-diversity of terrestrial vertebrates in Mexico.
We explored the hypothesis that high β-diversity of terrestrial vertebrates of Mexico is associated with a high environmental heterogeneity (HEH) and identify the drivers of β-diversity at different spatial scales. We used distribution range maps of 2,513 species of amphibians, reptiles, mammals, an...
