Dear Amelie
You can find mentioned phrase in the following book
" Wildlife-Habitat Relationships, Concepts and applications" by Micael L. Morrison, Bruce G. Marcot, and R. William Mannan"
This is a valuable reference book, enjoy.
Happy reading
Mehran
Dear Amelie,
Maybe this article will help you to find the reference that you need.

In this paper you will find an interesting approach about the functional habitat. I hope that this paper will help you to find the information that you need.
Are you about migrations? This is information everywhere.
