Contradicting habitat type-extinction risk relationships between living and fossil amphibians.

abstract：:There is a long-standing interest in behavioural ecology, exploring the causes and correlates of consistent individual differences in mean behavioural traits ('personality') and the response to the environment ('plasticity'). Recently, it has been observed that individuals also consistently differ in their residual in...
