if an organism interacts with many other organisms in its ecosystem, it would have a broad niche. However, other organisms have evolved very specialized niches. For example, koalas (Phascolarctos cinereus_)
I particularly liked how the chapters are broken up into mushroom-based ecological niches like rotters or parasites, making an overwhelming amount of information easily accessible. An ideal gift for the fungally-inclined people in your life. –Tom, Technical Advisor Ocean Bottle I love the ...
nicheROVER: (Niche) (R)egion and Niche (Over)lap Metrics for Multidimensional Ecological Niches. This package uses a probabilistic method to calculate niche regions and pairwise niche overlap using multidimensional niche indicator data (e.g., stable isotopes, environmental variables, etc.). The ni...
My personal favourite isIntegrated Principles of Zoologyby Hickman. Emphasizing the central role of evolution in generating diversity, this best-selling text describes animal life and the fascinating adaptations that enable animals to inhabit so many ecological niches. Featuring high quality illustrations ...
Each of the fifteen-or so species of vanga has evolved to fill its own ecological niche. This is an example of adaptive radiation – the evolutionary process in which multiple species evolve from a single ancestral species in order to fill different niches. ...
of freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems are characterized by complex relationships among abiotic resources and their partitioning, natural disturbances and associated successional processes (Goebel et al., 2012), which in turn promote the coexistence of plant species with different ecological niches. Riparia...
