                                   Richard hypothesis 

d/w = resource separation ratio.

d/w < 1, species cannot coexist;

1 < d/w < 3, there will be some competition between species

d/w > 3, species coexist harmoniously

#Unit 10. Ecological Principles

Proportional similarity values of less than 0.70 have been taken to indicate possible coexistence

While those greater than 0.70 indicate competitive exclusion.

Character displacement

Morphological differences in two closely related species present in same geographical area while similar morphology when present at different geographical are

1. Niche diversification

2. Co-existence of many species

3. Evolutionary program

Ecological compression

Short term evolutionary response

More number of species coexist together

Non inheritable trait

Not change habitat but reduce the food range
