We examine latitudinal effects of breeding bird taxonomic, phylogenetic and functional β‐diversity (Tβ, Pβ and Fβ, respectively) along elevational gradients to test predictions derived from Janzen's (The American Naturalist 101:233–249, 1967) classic ideas that tropical mountains represent stronger dispersal barriers than temperate mountains.
