Species-rich dung beetle communities buffer ecosystem services in perturbed agro-ecosystems
Many studies document high levels of functional redundancy in ecosystems, suggesting that species extinctions will not be detrimental to ecosystem functions and services. However, apparently redundant taxa may prove critical for sustaining ecosystem functions and services in the context of environme...
