A Comparative Study of the Reproductive Biology of Sympatric Morning Glories (<em>Ipomoea</em>-convolvulaceae)
… plants reduced their selection pressures via temporal partitioning or differential attraction of pollinators using six closely related, sympatric co-flowering morning glories (<em>Ipomoea</em>-Convolvulaceae).</p> <p>Diurnal flower phenology tightly overlapped, which did not facilitate …

Constraints on Neltumius arizonensis (Coleoptera: Bruchidae) as a biocontrol agent of prosopis in South Africa : the role of parasitoids
… through the sampling period hence there is no temporal partitioning of resources. 4. Percentage emergence of N. arizonensis was low at the start of the season but increased as the season progressed with higher proportions of N. arizonensis emerging from 'tree' pods than 'ground' pods. …

Trees, Birds, and People: Resource Use and Interspecific Interactions in a Namibian Cavity Nesting Guild
… explore potential instances of cavity resource partitioning. Use of nest cavities appears to sort out by size among both cavity-excavators and secondary cavity-nesters. Excavators appear to partition cavity substrate spatially by decay class, while spatial partitioning among secondary nesters …

Camera traps as sensor networks for space-time exploration of terrestrial mammal communities
… driven by other factors too. Chapter 3 examined temporal-partitioning as a mechanism driving sympatry. Using kernel density functions and mutivariate statistical analyses, this chapter enabled subtle nuances in the spectrum of diel activity rhythms to be visualised, highlighting the variety of …

Structure of an Ensemble of Insectivorous Bats
… characteristics that may permit resource partitioning but few studies focus on more than one or two traits. Using seven sympatric Jamaican bats, I examined features which could allow for spatial, temporal, behavioural and dietary partitioning including wing morphology, echolocation …
