Conservation-relevant plant species indicate arthropod richness across trophic levels: Habitat quality is more important than habitat amount

Conservation-relevant plant species indicate arthropod richness across trophic levels: Habitat quality is more important than habitat amount

The massive declines in terrestrial arthropods reported across Europe call for effective methods to monitor and promote biodiversity in human-dominated landscapes. Previous studies vary in their support for the suitability of plants as indicators of arthropod diversity, while the potential of subset...
