Sumario:[Aim] Animal communities around the world are responding to climate change by al-tering their taxonomic composition, mainly through an increase in the colonisationrate of warm-dwelling species and the local extinction of cold-dwelling ones. We as-sessed whether the taxonomic composition of bird assemblages in peninsular Spainhas changed in accordance with the recent increase in temperature. We also evalu-ated the role of species thermal affinities and population dynamics on these changes.
