Rarity Patterns is a theoretical framework in ecology that identifies and classifies the distinct spatial, temporal, and abundance-based configurations through which species occur infrequently within biological communities, thereby distinguishing itself from general distribution models by focusing specifically on the mechanisms and implications of low occurrence frequency.
