French

Domaine(s)
  • Écosystèmes
  • Origine de la vie et des espèces en général
CONT

La disparition d'une telle espèce ou d'un couple d'espèces soi-disant redondantes ne modifierait pas les caractéristiques de l'écosystème. Considérons quelques exemples : 20 espèces d'algues vertes monocellulaires (flottantes) dans un étang, 5 espèces de bourdons dans un pré (tous des pollinisateurs opportunistes) ou 10 espèces d'arbres à feuilles caduques (toutes des composantes de la canopée), etc.
