Strong trait correlation and phylogenetic signal in North American ground beetle (Carabidae) morphology
Abstract Functional traits mediate species' responses to, and roles within, their environment and are constrained by evolutionary history. While we have a strong understanding of trait evolution for macro‐taxa such as birds and mammals, our understanding of invertebrates is comparatively limite...
