The geographical variation of network structure is scale dependent : understanding the biotic specialization of host-parasitoid networks

Research on the structure of ecological networks suggests that a number of universal patterns exist. Historically, biotic specialization has been thought to increase towards the Equator. Yet, recent studies have challenged this view showing non-conclusive results. Most studies analysing the geograph...
