🦗 Meadows are now home to only a few different insect species when compared across different locations in Bavaria. Specialized and unique species communities have been lost. The situation in forests is similarly monotonous 🌳

Distance-decay reveals contrasting effects of land-use types on arthropod community homogenisation.

Managed grasslands are most affected by community homogenisation, while arable lands and settlements showed heterogeneous communities.
Distance-decay reveals contrasting effects of land-use types on arthropod community homogenisation - Nature Communications
Species homogenisation driven by land-use intensification is threatening many taxa globally. Here, the authors find that for arthropod communities in Central Europe, managed grasslands are the most af...

Experimental research @betafor.bsky.social finds that canopy gaps with deadwood boost insect diversity by supporting rare phylogenetic lineages 🧪

Natural dynamics and targeted management can help conserve them and their ecosystem functions 🌳 🌏
