Summary
Plant species richness and plant and small mammal beta diversity decline over the elevational gradient in the Otway ranges. These patterns are influenced by climate, habitat and spatial structure. This highlights the need to preserve continuous habitat and understand the influence of climate, to conserve communities in the changing future
