Maintaining high vegetation structural diversity in the landscape promotes arthropod diversity in dynamic production areas

摘要: Species occurrence in transformed areas (or matrix) can be enhanced by reducing the contrast vegetation structure between matrix and remnant natural patches. Contrast depends on both structural features of remnants that matrix, which dynamic determined harvesting practices. We assess whether structurally equivalent vegetation, as relative to landscape, promotes species diversity abundance matrix. Furthermore, we importance compared immediate adjacent patch. Arthropods were sampled from 34 sites situated alien forestry plantation blocks different ages, dissected corridors grassland and/or closed canopy woody habitats. analysed how arthropod assemblages within plantations influenced patches directly adjacent. The amount at landscape level promoted was more important than either or biotope type patch for promoting blocks. Landscapes composed a mosaic distinct best contribute production areas. Harvesting practices radically change entire should avoided. recommend use rotational harvesting, so creating variety tree ages improved spillover
