Temperature and aridity determine body size conformity to Bergmann’s rule independent of latitudinal differences in a tropical environment

Bergmann’s rule, defined as the tendency for endotherms to be larger in colder environments, is a biophysical generalization of body size variation that is frequently tested along latitudinal gradients, even though latitude is only a proxy for temperature variation. We test whether variation in temp...
