Testing the 'abundant centre'hypothesis on endemic reef fishes in south-western Australia

F Tuya, T Wernberg, MS Thomsen - Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2008 - int-res.com
The abundance of a species is generally expected to peak at the centre of its distribution
range and decline towards the range limits. Empirical evidence for such 'abundant …
