Habitat loss and simplification lower arthropod richness but not diversity

Erin V. Scott,
Ryan Almeida,
Sam McKlin
et al.

Abstract: Habitat loss is rarely truly random and often occurs selectively with respect to the plant species comprising the habitat. Such selective habitat removal that decreases plant species diversity, that is, habitat simplification or homogenization, may have two negative effects on other species. First, the reduction in plant community size (number of individuals) represents habitat loss for species at higher trophic levels who use plants as habitat. Second, when plants are removed selectively, the resulting habita… Show more
