岛屿的起源影响岛屿的殖民和辐射动态,从而对居住在其中的物种施加不同的选择压力。岛屿上捕食者和竞争者物种的数量少于大陆选择的“缓慢”生活史属性(“岛屿综合症”)。与居住在大陆碎片和陆桥岛屿上的动物相比,在海洋岛屿上定居和辐射的动物可能面临更新颖的环境。我们假设海洋岛屿特有物种将表现出最慢的生命史,而陆桥岛屿物种将与大陆物种最相似。我们预测,古老、小和孤立岛屿上的物种也将有缓慢的生活史。
The origins of islands influence island colonization and radiation dynamics, thus exerting differential selection pressures on the species that inhabit them. The occurrence of lower numbers of predator and competitor species on islands than the mainland selects for ‘slow’ life‐history attributes (the ‘island syndrome’). Animals colonizing, and radiating on, oceanic islands probably face more novel environments than do those inhabiting continental fragment and land‐bridge islands. We hypothesized that oceanic island endemics will show the slowest life histories, whereas land‐bridge island species will resemble mainland species the most. We predicted that species on old, small and isolated islands will also have slow life histories.
