Does size matter? An analysis of the niche width and vulnerability to climate change of fourteen species of the genus Crotalus from North America

The niche comprises the set of abiotic and biotic environmental conditions in which a species can live. Consequently, those species that present broader niches are expected to be more tolerant to changes in climatic variations than those species that present reduced niches.
