The relative influence of competition and prey defenses on the phenotypic structure of insectivorous bat ensembles in southern Africa.
Deterministic filters such as competition and prey defences should have a strong influence on the community structure of animals such as insectivorous bats that have life histories characterized by low fecundity, low predation risk, long life expectancy, and stable populations. We investigated the r...
