Environmental gradients and the evolution of successional habitat specialization: A test case with 14 Neotropical forest sites

Successional gradients are ubiquitous in nature, yet few studies have systematically examined the evolutionary origins of taxa that specialize at different successional stages. Here we quantify successional habitat specialization in Neotropical forest trees and evaluate its evolutionary lability alo...
