Structure of Dung Beetle Communities in an Altitudinal Gradient of Neotropical Dry Forest

To understand the effects of global warming in tropical insect communities, it is necessary to comprehend how such communities respond to different abiotic factors that covariate with altitude. In this study, we partially answer this question applied to dung beetle communities distributed along an a...
