Sentence examples for have small range from inspiring English sources

Small-bodied species that also have small range sizes (the majority of the extant mantellid species) would experience a net reduction in substitution rate, and presumably in diversification rate, as compared to lineages with small SVL but less microendemic distributions.

Whole-tree based methods support this pattern: CoEvol found a phylogenetically independent, significant positive correlation between SVL and RSB, reflecting the fact that most mantellids are both small and have small range sizes, and hinting at replicated evolution of this phenotype within the mantellid radiation.

In contrast, the two range size estimates were positively correlated with the substitution rate (if only very weakly), which means that in extant species that are both small and have small range sizes (exhibiting a MEP), substitution rate would experience a relative slow-down compared to lineages that have small body sizes but large range sizes.

By at risk species, we mean those that are endemic and have small ranges.

Blacktip reef sharks (Carcharhinus melanopterus), although widespread around the Pacific, appear to have small ranges within their home reef system.

Cats in lush environments have small ranges, whereas those in barren landscapes must go farther in search of food.

To address whether poorly known species tend to have small ranges, we compile an independent dataset of range maps for each species to compare with the number of specimens.

Sister species with small contrasts of SVL had small range size contrasts (shown as logarithms in Figure 3d, correlation after exclusion of two outlier species pairs).

Sheep and goat nomads have smaller ranges, staying mainly near the cultivated regions of Jordan, Syria, and Iraq.

The new study also shows species that were already living on the ridge-top now have smaller ranges and some have disappeared altogether.

However, an asymmetric distribution is found for atmPrf2010 and atmPrf2013, which have smaller ranges of positive deviations of ∆T LRT.
