Cuckoo as indicator of high functional diversity of bird communities: A new paradigm for biodiversity surrogacy

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

We tested the hypothesis that the cuckoo may serve as an effective surrogate for different aspects of biodiversity. Six different measures of biodiversity were estimated for these three bird communities: (a) taxonomic diversity, (b) host species richness, (c) functional richness, (d) functional evenness, (e) functional divergence, and (f) evolutionary distinctiveness. Mixed models were used for studying the patterns of occurrence of the cuckoo in relation to environmental variables and biodiversity measures. The presence of the cuckoo was positively correlated with high values of taxonomic diversity, functional richness and functional evenness, but not with functional divergence or evolutionary distinctiveness of bird communities. We demonstrate that host species represent different levels of functional diversity in bird communities, because they are broadly distributed and occupy many niches for breeding and feeding. The implications for conservation are many: Hotspots determined by the occurr
