Abstract

The Greater Cape Floristic Region at the southern tip of Africa is a global megadiversity hotspot. The region's biodiversity has been driven by a long history of topographic, climatic, and sea level change coupled with geological uplift, and without being exposed to any major climate events such as glaciations since the breakup of Gondwana. Among arthropods, this long history has led to the survival of many ancient lineages, manifested by much disparity followed by considerable speciation in more recent times, with the emergence of many cryptic species flocks. There is much convergence among the various taxa and functional groups in how they have responded to the various environmental filters of the past. There has also been the development of a great many morphological, behavioral, and microhabitat specialisms, associated with both topography and particular habitats, as well as interactions with other organisms. Morphological and molecular advances are elucidating how this megadiversity came about. There are indications that among the arthropod fauna, especially species that are small‐sized and have cryptic lifestyles, many more taxa remain to be discovered. Here, we review the eco‐evolutionary trends that have occurred in this region and that have resulted in such remarkable arthropod diversity. Conservation of the arthropod fauna requires recognition of this historical biogeography and ecology. Instigation of approaches over wide areas is required so as to encompass all this diversity.

Abstract

Restoring the heterogeneity of farmland mosaics can help mitigate the ongoing global decline of biodiversity. It has been shown that semi‐natural habitats in viticultural landscapes influence biodiversity in vineyards. However, less attention has been paid to the influence of the extent of vineyard fields and their arrangement in the landscape.Using previously published data, we investigated the influence of both semi‐natural habitats and vineyard fields on arthropod diversity in vineyards in 35 viticultural landscapes located in South Africa and Austria. Effects on several arthropod groups were assessed using standardised landscape predictors that integrate compositional (total area) and configurational (shape and spatial arrangement) heterogeneity of semi‐natural habitats and vineyards. In addition, we assessed the influence of within‐vineyard vegetation cover and farming system (organic or non‐organic) to explore local‐scale effects.Within‐vineyard vegetation and flower cover had a consistent positive influence on most arthropod taxa, whereas farming system had little effect. In addition, configurational heterogeneity of semi‐natural vegetation and vineyards influenced several taxa. However, different taxa showed contrasting relationships with configurational heterogeneity, hindering general recommendations for optimal configuration of semi‐natural elements and vineyards in the landscape. The only significant response to compositional heterogeneity was bug abundance in South Africa, which increased with increasing proportion of semi‐natural elements.We found that increasing vegetation cover in vineyards is an effective and easily implementable measure to improve biodiversity in vineyards. In addition, the spatial arrangement of vineyards influences within‐vineyard arthropod diversity as much as the spatial arrangement of semi‐natural vegetation in the landscape, which expands the possibilities for planning viticultural landscapes with high overall biodiversity.

Abstract

Heterogeneity at local and landscape scales can promote insect diversity and moderate insect declines that stem from global change. Determining how species respond to different landscape components provides insight into the role of heterogeneity in landscapes undergoing change. We examine how indigenous forest-grassland edges are used by butterflies. We assessed butterfly diversity and behaviour at forest edges and adjoining grassland, and tested whether these patterns are influenced by differing weather conditions between seasons. Forest edges supported a species rich butterfly assemblage. Forest specialists were more diverse at forest edges than in grassland, whereas grassland specialists and habitat generalists were as diverse at forest edges as in grassland. All butterfly groups showed more inter- and intra-specific interactions and more patrolling behaviour at forest edges, but more feeding and transient behaviour in grassland. Occurrence and behavioural patterns were not mediated by season, suggesting that the influence of forests does not change with varying environmental conditions. Nonetheless, certain species preferentially utilized forest edges in the hot and windy season, indicating that shelter provided by forest edges influences butterfly habitat use. We found no evidence that complementary nectar sources influence butterfly distribution patterns. Implications for insect conservation: The diverse butterfly assemblages and range of behaviours supported by indigenous forest edges indicate that forest patches are an important habitat component for butterflies. Conserving forest patches in these coastal grasslands may help buffer butterfly populations against global change. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Wild bees are threatened by multiple interacting stressors, such as habitat loss, land use change, parasites, and pathogens. However, vineyards with vegetated inter‐rows can offer high floral resources within viticultural landscapes and provide foraging and nesting habitats for wild bees. Here, we assess how vineyard management regimes (organic vs. conventional; inter‐row vegetation management) and landscape composition determine the inter‐row plant and wild bee assemblages, as well as how these variables relate to functional traits in 24 Austrian and 10 South African vineyards. Vineyards had either permanent vegetation cover in untilled inter‐rows or temporary vegetation cover in infrequently tilled inter‐rows. Proportion of seminatural habitats (e.g., fallows, grassland, field margins) and woody structures (e.g., woodlots, single trees, tree rows) were used as proxies for landscape composition and mapped within 500‐m radius around the study vineyards. Organic vineyard management increased functional richness (FRic) of wild bees and flowering plants, with woody structures marginally increasing species richness and FRic of wild bees. Wild bee and floral traits were differently associated across the countries. In Austria, several bee traits (e.g., lecty, pollen collection type, proboscis length) were associated with flower color and symmetry, while in South African vineyards, only bees’ proboscis length was positively correlated with floral traits characteristic of Asteraceae flowers (e.g., ray–disk morphology, yellow colors). Solitary bee species in Austria benefitted from infrequent tillage, while ground nesting species preferred inter‐rows with undisturbed soils. Higher proportions of woody structures in surrounding landscapes resulted in less solitary and corbiculate bees in Austria, but more aboveground nesting species in South Africa. In both countries, associations between FRic of wild bees and flowering plants were positive both in organic and in conventional vineyards. We recommend the use of diverse cover crop seed mixtures to enhance plant flowering diversity in inter‐rows, to increase wild bee richness in viticultural landscapes., This article studies how wild bee and plant diversity and functional traits are related to vineyard management intensities and viticulture landscape properties in Austria and South Africa. Common denominators for wild bees and flowering plants are studied across countries. Unique characteristics of the bee and plant communities in the vineyards of the two countries are analyzed using functional traits to provide subtlety conservation measures for wild bees in viticultural agroecosystems.

Abstract

The fate of humans and insects intertwine, especially through the medium of plants. Global environmental change, including land transformation and contamination, is causing concerning insect diversity loss, articulated in the companion review Scientists' warning to humanity on insect extinctions. Yet, despite a sound philosophical foundation, recognized ethical values, and scientific evidence, globally we are performing poorly at instigating effective insect conservation. As insects are a major component of the tapestry of life, insect conservation would do well to integrate better with overall biodiversity conservation and climate change mitigation. This also involves popularizing insects, especially through use of iconic species, through more media coverage, and more inclusive education. Insect conservationists need to liaise better with decision makers, stakeholders, and land managers, especially at the conceptually familiar scale of the landscape. Enough evidence is now available, and synthesized here, which illustrates that multiple strategies work at local levels towards saving insects. We now need to expand these locally-crafted strategies globally. Tangible actions include ensuring maintenance of biotic complexity, especially through improving temporal and spatial heterogeneity, functional connectivity, and metapopulation dynamics, while maintaining unique habitats, across landscape mosaics, as well as instigating better communication. Key is to have more expansive sustainable agriculture and forestry, improved regulation and prevention of environmental risks, and greater recognition of protected areas alongside agro-ecology in novel landscapes. Future-proofing insect diversity is now critical, with the benefits far reaching, including continued provision of valuable ecosystem services and the conservation of a rich and impressive component of Earth's biodiversity.

Abstract

Here we build on the manifesto ‘World Scientists Warning to Humanity, issued by the Alliance of World Scientists. As a group of conservation biologists deeply concerned about the decline of insect populations, we here review what we know about the drivers of insect extinctions, their consequences, and how extinctions can negatively impact humanity. We are causing insect extinctions by driving habitat loss, degradation, and fragmentation, use of polluting and harmful substances, the spread of invasive species, global climate change, direct overexploitation, and co-extinction of species dependent on other species. With insect extinctions, we lose much more than species. We lose abundance and biomass of insects, diversity across space and time with consequent homogenization, large parts of the tree of life, unique ecological functions and traits, and fundamental parts of extensive networks of biotic interactions. Such losses lead to the decline of key ecosystem services on which humanity depends. From pollination and decomposition, to being resources for new medicines, habitat quality indication and many others, insects provide essential and irreplaceable services. We appeal for urgent action to close key knowledge gaps and curb insect extinctions. An investment in research programs that generate local, regional and global strategies that counter this trend is essential. Solutions are available and implementable, but urgent action is needed now to match our intentions. (VLID)4800017

Abstract

Local and landscape features influence the spatial distribution of biodiversity. At the landscape scale, heterogeneity has compositional and configurational components that can be measured at different resolutions of conservation planning.We assess the importance of local and landscape features measured at different planning resolutions for maintaining taxonomic and functional butterfly diversity. In remnant conservation corridors that dissect alien tree plantations, butterflies were sampled along a gradient of successional stages, from open and recently burned grasslands to closed‐canopy woody habitats. Changes in local vegetation structure were represented by measures of canopy cover. At the landscape scale, compositional and configurational heterogeneity were measured at two resolutions: a simple binary classification of suitable habitat versus unsuitable transformed habitat, and a classification that accounts for the different successional stages within corridors (i.e. within‐corridor heterogeneity). Butterfly assemblages were characterized using taxonomic (Simpson's diversity index) and functional indices (Rao's quadratic entropy). The relationship between environmental filters and species traits was further assessed using multivariate modelling.Taxonomic diversity did not reflect functional diversity, as the latter showed differential trait specific responses to local vegetation structure.For both functional and taxonomic diversity, local and landscape variables representing within‐corridor heterogeneity were more important than landscape variables measured at the coarser planning resolution. Butterfly diversity showed a negative relationship with increasing edge density between grassy and woody habitats.Synthesis and applications. To promote the taxonomic and functional dimensions of biodiversity, management should aim to maintain both open‐ and closed‐canopy habitats within corridors. These habitats should be contiguous, and corridors as wide as possible, to increase the patch size of contiguous habitat while reducing the proportion of edge. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

42. Sympatric bush cricket species co-exist across a complex landscape by optimising both acoustic and ecological space

Author

Abstract

ABSTRACTSoundscape comprises of a mix of species-specific calls, where individuals compete for acoustic space, yet a different vegetation structure allows for differential call filtration. We focus on an assemblage of bush cricket species in a human-transformed landscape, with a special focus on the seemingly endangered Thoracistus thyraeus. Landscape transformation produces both novel ecological and acoustic spaces in which species must maintain effective communication. Using acoustic activity and species’ total call times to characterise their response to the different biotopes in the landscape, we determine how species are distributed across the landscape to optimise ecological and acoustic space. We further investigate the distribution of occupied frequency bands to determine whether species are exposed to potential acoustic interference from other sympatric species. We identified 11 bush cricket species and hypothesised that where acoustic interference between species is likely; the different species will be found in different biotopes. We found that acoustic interference between species is low as species co-exist by having distinct ecological resource requirements and inhabit different biotopes, thus preventing acoustic interference from other species. Acoustic and environmental factors play interactive roles in enabling sympatric species to co-exist across complex landscapes, illustrating that these insects can co-exist without acoustic interference.

Abstract

The PREDICTS project-Projecting Responses of Ecological Diversity In Changing Terrestrial Systems (www.predicts.org.uk)-has collated from published studies a large, reasonably representative database of comparable samples of biodiversity from multiple sites that differ in the nature or intensity of human impacts relating to land use. We have used this evidence base to develop global and regional statistical models of how local biodiversity responds to these measures. We describe and make freely available this 2016 release of the database, containing more than 3.2 million records sampled at over 26,000 locations and representing over 47,000 species. We outline how the database can help in answering a range of questions in ecology and conservation biology. To our knowledge, this is the largest and most geographically and taxonomically representative database of spatial comparisons of biodiversity that has been collated to date; it will be useful to researchers and international efforts wishing to model and understand the global status of biodiversity.

Abstract

The PREDICTS project—Projecting Responses of Ecological Diversity In Changing Terrestrial Systems (www.predicts.org.uk)—has collated from published studies a large, reasonably representative database of comparable samples of biodiversity from multiple sites that differ in the nature or intensity of human impacts relating to land use. We have used this evidence base to develop global and regional statistical models of how local biodiversity responds to these measures. We describe and make freely available this 2016 release of the database, containing more than 3.2 million records sampled at over 26,000 locations and representing over 47,000 species. We outline how the database can help in answering a range of questions in ecology and conservation biology. To our knowledge, this is the largest and most geographically and taxonomically representative database of spatial comparisons of biodiversity that has been collated to date; it will be useful to researchers and international efforts wishing to model and understand the global status of biodiversity.

Abstract

• Impact of timber residue management on soil arthropods is poorly understood. • Immediate impact on soil arthropod diversity did not differ among management types. • Soil arthropods partially recovered irrespective of management practice. • Soil biological activity recovered by ∼ 50 % after 6 months. • Long-term assessment is required to determine sustainable management practices. To sustainably manage soils, we need to understand the impact of management practices on soil biota. A major disturbance in commercial tree plantations is the management of the woody residue that remains in situ after harvesting. We examine the impact of different harvest residue management practices on soil biota in a forestry landscape in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa on nutrient-rich clay soils. We assess four different management practices and unmanaged grassland at three time periods: prior to implementation of residue management, directly after implementation, and six months after implementation. Management practices are 1) on-site retention of unburned harvest residue, 2) residue removal off site, 3) high-intensity burning and 4) low-intensity burning of residue. We examine the response of ant and springtail taxonomic and functional diversity, assemblage composition, and soil biological activity. We also assess whether soil biological activity at different soil depths differs among treatments. Across all sites, all biotic responses declined in the post-treatment, but recovery of the focal arthropods after six months was low regardless of the type of residue management practice. At each time period, ant and springtail taxonomic and functional diversity showed no difference among management practices. Soil biological activity showed minor differences between practices after implementation overall, and at different soil depths, and recovery was similar between residue management practices after six months. After six months, soil biological activity recovered to ∼ 50 % in all sites. Thus, in the short term, soil biota in this region are not differentially impacted by different residue management practices, despite major variations in conditions. We recommend further assessments in different soil types and over a longer period to assess the full impact of slash management on these functionally important soil arthropods.

Abstract

The PREDICTS project-Projecting Responses of Ecological Diversity In Changing Terrestrial Systems (www.predicts.org.uk)-has collated from published studies a large, reasonably representative database of comparable samples of biodiversity from multiple sites that differ in the nature or intensity of human impacts relating to land use. We have used this evidence base to develop global and regional statistical models of how local biodiversity responds to these measures. We describe and make freely available this 2016 release of the database, containing more than 3.2 million records sampled at over 26,000 locations and representing over 47,000 species. We outline how the database can help in answering a range of questions in ecology and conservation biology. To our knowledge, this is the largest and most geographically and taxonomically representative database of spatial comparisons of biodiversity that has been collated to date; it will be useful to researchers and international efforts wishing to model and understand the global status of biodiversity.
