Decreasing Species Richness with Increase in Elevation and Positive Rapoport Effects of Crambidae (Lepidoptera) on Mount Taibai

Decreasing Species Richness with Increase in Elevation and Positive Rapoport Effects of Crambidae (Lepidoptera) on Mount Taibai

Rapoport’s rule proposes that a species’ range size increases with the increase in a gradient (such as latitude, altitude or water depth). However, altitudinal distributions and Rapoport’s rule have rarely been tested for Asian Lepidoptera. Pyraustinae and Spilomelinae (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) are e...
