  abstract = {{T}he {T}heory of {I}sland {B}iogeography ({TIB}) predicts how area and isolation influence species richness equilibrium on insular habitats. {H}owever, the {TIB} remains silent about functional trait composition and provides no information on the scaling of functional diversity with area, an observation that is now documented in many systems. {T}o fill this gap, we develop a probabilistic approach to predict the distribution of a trait as a function of habitat area and isolation, extending the {TIB} beyond the traditional species-area relationship. {W}e compare model predictions to the body-size distribution of piscivorous and herbivorous fishes found on tropical reefs worldwide. {W}e find that small and isolated reefs have a higher proportion of large-sized species than large and connected reefs. {W}e also find that knowledge of species body-size and trophic position improves the predictions of fish occupancy on tropical reefs, supporting both the allometric and trophic theory of island biogeography. {T}he integration of functional ecology to island biogeography is broadly applicable to any functional traits and provides a general probabilistic approach to study the scaling of trait distribution with habitat area and isolation.},
