Phenological Changes

To generate realistic projections of species’ responses to climate change, we need to understand the factors that limit their ability to respond. Although climatic niche conservatism, the maintenance of a species’s climatic niche over time, is a critical assumption in niche-based species distribution models, little is known about how universal it is and how it operates. In particular, few studies have tested the role of climatic niche conservatism via phenological changes in explaining the reported wide variance in the extent of range shifts among species. Using historical records of the phenology and spatial distribution of British plants under a warming climate, we revealed that: (i) perennial species, as well as those with weaker or lagged phenological responses to temperature, experienced a greater increase in temperature during flowering (i.e. failed to maintain climatic niche via phenological changes); (ii) species that failed to maintain climatic niche via phenological changes showed greater northward range shifts; and (iii) there was a complementary relationship between the levels of climatic niche conservatism via phenological changes and range shifts. These results indicate that even species with high climatic niche conservatism might not show range shifts as instead they track warming temperatures during flowering by advancing their phenology.

Niche Diversification

That parasites actively select specific sites in their hosts is well known. Some parasites respond to changing conditions within the host by making diel or other short-term migrations, which may be modified by the presence of other parasites.Evidence is presented to support the hypothesis that continued interactions between parasites lead to niche diversification, and that site segregation, and consequently narrow site specificity, is an important part of niche specialization. The paucity of cases of interactive site segregation as compared with those of genetically stabilized selective site segregation suggests that parasite faunas are mature communities, the diversity of which has been established to an important extent through biotic interactions.
