Beta diversity of Arctiinae moths (Lepidoptera: Erebidae) along a recovering tropical forest gradient

Amid widespread biodiversity loss and alarming rates of tropical deforestation, the potential of secondary forest succession in restoring β-diversity is still widely unexplored. To investigate β-diversity along naturally recovering forests, we collected the functionally diverse g...

Identifying the scale of effect of habitat for diversity and biomass of multiple arthropod taxa

Abstract Context Understanding how landscape composition influences biodiversity is a central objective of landscape ecology. Because species respond to environmental conditions across different spatial scales, landscape effects are inherently scale-dependent, making the identifi...
