Abstract

Freeman et al. (Reports, 22 July 2022, p. 416) argue that interspecific competition rather than climate is the leading driver of bird species' elevational ranges. A reanalysis of their data shows no support for the competition hypothesis, but a strong effect of climate seasonality on species ranges. Their results are artifacts arising from a suboptimal model that misses important variables.
