- Title
Ecology: Corals fail a test of neutrality.
- Authors
Pandolfi, John M.
- Abstract
The article presents a study related to the prediction of species' distribution in various environments conducted by M. Dornelas and colleagues. An overview on the study which has described an approach that will join an emerging next generation of tests of the neutral theory was presented. It was emphasized that the study of Dornelas will invigorate debate over the importance of biological details in determining the coexistence of species within communities.
