几十年来对物种分布的研究揭示了特定物种的物种-环境关系的地理差异。也就是说，一个物种利用当地环境的方式在地理空间上是不同的。然而，这种变化背后的驱动因素是有争议的，而且在很大程度上仍未被探索。保守的生态位特征应该反映一个物种的进化史，而更灵活的生态特征可以在更细的尺度上变化，反映局部适应。
Decades of research on species distributions has revealed geographic variation in species‐environment relationships for a given species. That is, the way a species uses the local environment varies across geographic space. However, the drivers underlying this variation are contested and still largely unexplored. Niche traits that are conserved should reflect the evolutionary history of a species whereas more flexible ecological traits could vary at finer scales, reflecting local adaptation.
