HighlightsLife history studies support the fast–slow continuum as the dominant but not unique axis structuring life history variation. Other important axes of life history variation associated with development and reproductive tactics exist, and exploration of further axes, clusters, and boundaries of life history variation is needed. Existing life history analyses are venturing far from theory and could benefit from a stronger focus on hypothesis testing rather than exploration.

Introduction Population ecologists aim to understand and predict population dynamics using demographic data including vital rates of survival, reproduction, and development. Their efforts include examining population responses to changes in climate, land use, and management (Morris and Doak 2002, Crone et al. 2011). Demographic data are also crucial for robust population viability analyses of threatened or invasive species (Morris and Doak 2002, Crone et al. 2011).
