摘要：

Species richness and extent of geographical range for North American freshwater amphipods and crayfish are strongly correlated with mean annual absolute, or range of, temperature, respectively. Such spatially based relationships are shown to be useful for predicting the biological consequences arising through scenarios of temporal climate warming.
