Distance decay of similarity in fungivorous insect communities: assessing dispersal limitation using genetic data

Abstract We evaluated how dispersal limitation affected spatial variation in the species composition of fungivorous insect communities inhabiting fruiting bodies of bracket fungi on scattered deadwoods. The insect communities showed significant distance decay of similarity pattern among deadwoods, w...
