Urban Habitat Mosaics Structure Gene Flow but Preserve Genetic Diversity in an Invasive Termite
We investigated how urbanization shapes genetic diversity, population structure, and colony organization in the invasive termite Heterotermes tenuis across paired urban‐forest sites in Guadeloupe, using 18 microsatellite loci to genotype 414 workers from 50 nests. While neutral genetic diversity remained comparable between habitats, significant genetic

Urbanization Effects on the Community Structure of Saproxylic Arthropods in Warm‐Temperate Japan
This study examined saproxylic arthropod communities in various landscapes, ranging from large to fragmented urban forests, and compared the structure and composition of these communities. The results showed that communities could be classified into three types based on species composition and that arthropod community types were correlated with forest ...
