Species richness of Orthoptera declines with elevation while elevational range of individual species peaks at mid elevation

Abstract Species richness has been shown to decrease, and elevational range increase (the Rapoport effect), with elevation as a consequence of biotic and abiotic factors, but patterns are inconsistent across taxonomic groups. Despite being an important indicator taxon and a component of local commun...
