Guilds, Functional Types and Ecological Groups
Abstract
The terms 'guild', 'functional type', 'functional group', 'structure-function group', 'plant type', 'adaptive syndrome', 'strategy' (sensu Grime 1979), 'species group' and 'ecological group' have all been used to describe ecological groupings of species. Although some workers have tried to make distinctions among these terms, no distinctions have been consistent between workers. Each term has been used in different ways by different

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
