What shapes ground beetle assemblages in a tree species-rich subtropical forest?

Pascale Zumstein et al.

Summary: The study in a subtropical forest ecosystem in southeast China found that ground beetle diversity and community structure were mainly influenced by environmental variables such as canopy cover, herb cover, soil pH, and elevation, rather than woody plant species richness and stand age. The research suggests that ground beetles may respond differently to environmental changes compared to other predatory arthropod groups like ants and spiders. This highlights the importance of studying a wide range of taxa to understand how environmental changes impact species assemblages in forest ecosystems.
