Something is lost and something is gained: loss and replacement of species and functional groups in ant communities at fragmented forests
Original language description
ContextSmall fragments of natural habitats with an increased proportion of edges are common landscape traits following agricultural expansion. Consequences of habitat fragmentation are widely documented. However, functional and mechanistic approaches are still needed in order to understand these changes.ObjectivesWe studied habitat loss and edge effects on ant communities, addressing changes in species and functional group diversity, and the relative importance of -diversity components.MethodsIn an endangered Neotropical forest, we sampled ants in edge and interior habitats using pitfall traps, during three summers (28 sites). We calculated taxonomic, phylogenetic and functional diversity and partitioned taxonomic and functional -diversity into replacement and loss/gain components.ResultsWe found more species and functional groups at edge than interior habitats, and four species were edge indicators. Habitat loss negatively affected total abundance and that of particular functional groups (fungus-gro
