Taxonomic and Trophic Groups Mediate Latitudinal Variation in Saproxylic Beetle Species Richness and Body Size Across Western Palaearctic Oak Forests Open
We examined latitudinal gradients in species richness and body size of saproxylic beetles across 28 veteran oak forest sites spanning from Israel to Norway. Focusing on 425 species from 11 taxonomic families and five trophic groups, we tes…

Click beetles (Elateridae) identify conservation units in Oriental and European beech forests Open
Beech trees form major parts of lowland temperate forests in the Western Palearctic. To protect biodiversity, many beech forests have been designated as World Heritage Sites or established as networks of beech forest reserves. However, the…

Drivers of wood‐inhabiting fungal diversity in European and Oriental beech forests Open
The hyperdiverse wood‐inhabiting fungi play a crucial role in the global carbon cycle, but often are threatened by deadwood removal, particularly in temperate forests dominated by European beech ( Fagus sylvatica ) and Oriental beech ( Fag…

Influence of habitat fragmentation and habitat amount on soil fungi communities in ancient forests Open
Context Fungi represent a large part of soil biodiversity as well as an essential role for tree hydromineral nutrition, survival, and carbon cycling. While their local diversity has proven to be shaped by abiotic and biotic factors related…

Ambient and substrate energy influence decomposer diversity differentially across trophic levels Open
The species‐energy hypothesis predicts increasing biodiversity with increasing energy in ecosystems. Proxies for energy availability are often grouped into ambient energy (i.e., solar radiation) and substrate energy (i.e., non‐structural c…

CRUCIAL - Services écosystémiques produits par les cultures intermédiaires multiservices de légumineuses et de crucifères. Open
Crucifers and legumes multi-services cover crop mixtures are an effective solution to mutualize ecosystem services related to nitrogen and sulphur cycle while providing a high biocontrol potential on soil-born pathogens. Mixtures provide t…

Molecular biogeography of the fungus-dwelling saproxylic beetle <i>Bolitophagus reticulatus</i> indicates rapid expansion from glacial refugia Open
The geographical distributions of species associated with European temperate broadleaf forests have been significantly influenced by glacial–interglacial cycles. During glacial periods, these species persisted in Mediterranean and extra-Me…

The use of sentinel logs to assess host shifts in early beetle colonisers of deadwood under climate‐ and forestry‐induced tree species substitutions Open
Global change scenarios project drastic modifications in tree species range and an increase in exotic tree plantations. Subsequent tree species substitutions may alter habitat conditions for biodiversity. We measured substitutability betwe…

Effects of Past and Present-Day Landscape Structure on Forest Soil Microorganisms Open
Theory surrounding landscape ecology has been built on the species distribution of birds and plants, but increasing evidence now exists for below-ground organisms, whose dispersal may also be affected by above-ground landscape structures. …

View article: Congruent patterns of functional diversity in saproxylic beetles and fungi across European beech forests
Congruent patterns of functional diversity in saproxylic beetles and fungi across European beech forests Open
Aim Beech forests comprise a globally unique temperate forest type in Europe. The dominance of beech in these forests developed during the ongoing post‐glacial northward re‐colonization, concurrently with intensified forest use by humans. …

Arthropod communities in fungal fruitbodies are weakly structured by climate and biogeography across European beech forests Open
Aim The tinder fungus Fomes fomentarius is a pivotal wood decomposer in European beech Fagus sylvatica forests. The fungus, however, has regionally declined due to centuries of logging. To unravel biogeographical drivers of arthropod commu…

How forest edges contribute to landscape connectivity? Open
Most of the temperate landscapes mix woodland and farmland habitats that are often in contact by forest-agriculture edges. These components of the landscape are well-known for their multiple effects on biodiversity and many ecosystem servi…

Behavioural response of xerophilous land snail and slug species to chemical cues from ground-beetle predators: the role of ecological relevance Open
Chemical cues allow prey to avoid predators without direct contact, which may greatly improve chances of survival, but may be costly if threat is overestimated. Hence, the threat-sensitive predator avoidance hypothesis predicts that prey r…
