Soil fauna and global change [PDF]
To examine possible effects of global change on soil fauna abundance and diversity, two long-term field experiments in Norway spruce stands in Sweden were studied.

Urban bats show dietary flexibility in aquatic arthropod consumption at urban and rural waterbodies
Urban waterbodies are critical for biodiversity and provide feeding grounds for insectivorous bats. Yet, how urbanisation affects bats' food choices at urban waterbodies and the role of emergent aquatic arthropods remain poorly understood. We compared the diet of three urban bat species – Vespadelus vulturnus, Chalinolobus gouldii,and Myotis macropus –

Responses of Soil Arthropod Communities to Varying Shading Levels in Agriphotovoltaic Systems
Soil fauna was primarily influenced by crop type and season rather than AgriPhotovoltaic (APV) panels. Elevated panels increased soil temperature and soil organic matter in early wheat stages, while shading enhanced soil moisture for tomatoes, benefiting moisture‐sensitive taxa.

Accuracy of occurrence and abundance estimates from insect metabarcoding
Abstract DNA metabarcoding—high‐throughput sequencing of barcode regions from bulk samples—has become a key tool for insect biodiversity assessment. Yet, how methodological choices affect the accuracy of metabarcoding data remains insufficiently explored. In this paper, we ask: (1) How does the lysis method (non‐destructive lysis vs.

Species richness declined along cave microclimatic gradient, while diversity increased with habitat heterogeneity, highlighting distinct roles of abiotic conditions and structural complexity in shaping arthropod communities. Functional traits shifted along the microclimatic gradient, with larger‐bodied and more eye‐regressed arthropods dominating under

Keanekaragaman collembola, semut dan laba-laba permukaan tanah pada empat tipe penggunaan lahan [PDF]
Intervensi manusia pada suatu tipe penggunaan lahan dapat mempengaruhi keanekaragaman hayati, antara lain keanekaragaman artropoda tanah. Dalam penelitian ini artropoda tanah yang diamati adalah Collembola, semut dan labalaba permukaan tanah.

Microbiome Analysis of New, Insidious Cave Wall Alterations in the Apse of Lascaux Cave
Lascaux Cave is a UNESCO site that was closed to the public following wall surface alterations. Most black stains that had formed on wall surface are stable or receding, but a new type of alteration visually quite different (termed dark zones) developed ...

Using over 416,000 occurrence records from 13 arthropod groups (6233 arthropod species), we mapped large‐scale richness patterns and identified biodiversity hotspots across the Iberian Peninsula and Balearic Islands. Hotspot congruence among arthropod groups was low, underscoring the importance of integrative, multi‐taxon approaches for conservation ...
