Functional and phylogenetic β diversities and their link with clustering/overdispersion and uniqueness/redundancy by Sandrine Pavoine, Carlo Ricotta

“…Abstract In recent decades, research on biodiversity in community ecology has been marked by the consideration of species' evolutionary histories and functional traits. Among the different spatial levels at which functional or phylogenetic (hereafter FP) diversity can be quantified, the definition of the general concept of between‐community (β) diversity has been given less attention than that of local, within‐community (α) and regional, merged‐community (γ) diversities. …”
