Habitat has also a significant influence on the diversity of European Carabus ground beetles. The species richness gradients of this speciose genus are the result of the interplay of current and past climate, but also with the influence of the geographical distribution of deciduous forests. 🧪🌐
Glaciations, deciduous forests, water availability and current geographical patterns in the diversity of European Carabus species
Aim Current climate, biotic habitat provision and historical events are known drivers of diversity patterns. However, these three factors are seldom evaluated together. Here, we study the influence ...

Habitat availability also plays an important role. There are more dragonfly lotic species (which prefer running waters) in areas with more rivers and streams, albeit the relationship of lentic species with standing water habitats is more complex. 🧪🌐 👇

These results resemble those found for European dung beetles, where we also showed that the influence of past climate was also higher in northern Europe. 🧪🌐 👇
Ice age climate, evolutionary constraints and diversity patterns of European dung beetles
Ecology Letters (2011) 14: 741–748 Abstract Current climate and Pleistocene climatic changes are both known to be associated with geographical patterns of diversity. We assess their associations ...

Temperature determines the northward decrease in species richness, and precipitation does so for the southward decrease. But the last ice age climate had a greater influence than current climate in northern Europe, particularly for species related to standing water habitats. 🧪🌐 👇

The study by @biomolic.bsky.social, @cristinaronquillo.bsky.social et al. shows that dragonfly species richness is higher in Central Europe and decreases both northwards and southwards from there, mainly due the higher diversity of lentic species (which depend on standing water habitats). 🧪🌐 👇

Este paper de la tesis de Fernando Hurtado muestra que la mayoría de especies coocurren o son neutrales a distintas escalas. La exclusión competitiva es menos común, y hasta el 7% de las especies analizadas ocurren juntas más en cojines de musgo que a escala regional @mncn-bgcg.bsky.social 🧪👇#NICED
Macroclimatic niche similarity and species relatedness shift their influence on species co‐occurrence in bryophyte forest communities across scales
The relationship between epiphytic bryophyte species associations changes with scale. Macroclimatic niche similarity strongly influences co-occurrence globally but less so at smaller scales. Most spe...
