Climatic drivers of hemispheric asymmetry in global patterns of ant species richness

Climatic drivers of hemispheric asymmetry in global patterns of ant species richness

Although many taxa show a latitudinal gradient in richness, the relationship between latitude and species richness is often asymmetrical between the northern and southern hemispheres. Here we examine the latitudinal pattern of species richness across 1003 local ant assemblages. We find latitudinal a...
