Body size is central to ecology at levels ranging from organismal fecundity to the functioning
of communities and ecosystems. Understanding temperature‐induced variations in body …

Eco-geographical rules maintained within a taxonomic clade, populations and species of
larger size were found in colder environments, and species of smaller size were found in …

Functional biogeography, or the study of trait-based distributional patterns, not only
complements our understanding of spatial patterns in biodiversity, but also sheds light on …

Temperature often affects maternal investment in offspring. Across and within species,
mothers in colder environments generally produce larger offspring than mothers in warmer …

Global warming and invasive species, separately or combined, can impose a large impact
on the condition of native species. However, we know relatively little about how these two …

Little is known about odonate ecology and phenology in warm mediterranean climates
where most wetlands are intermittent. We identified variables associated with the presence …

Large-scale latitudinal studies that include both north and south edge populations and
address sex differences are needed to understand how selection has shaped trait variation …

Trade‐offs among traits are central to life‐history theory and often closely linked to an
organism's fitness. Understanding how these trade‐offs vary among populations and across …

Variation in hatching time (phenology) might cause size differences within populations
resulting in size‐mediated priority effects (SMPEs) shaping intraspecific interactions. These …

A shift in the relative arrival of offspring, for example a shift in hatching time, can affect
competition at the intraspecific level through size‐mediated priority effects, where the larger …
