Evidence of phenotypic plasticity along an altitudinal gradient in the dung beetle Onthophagus proteus
BACKGROUND: High altitude insects are an ecologically specialized group and possess a suite of adaptions which allow persistence in the inhospitable conditions often associated with mountain tops. Changes in body coloration and reductions or increases in body size are thought to be examples of such...
