These non -random linkages might be best captured by patterns of phyloge-netic diversity, which take into account co -evolutionary dependencies. However,lack of adequate phylogenetic data of higher trophic levels hampers our mecha-nistic understanding of biodiversity relationships in species-rich ecosystems.2. We used DNA barcoding to generate data on the phylogenetic diversity of lepi-dopteran caterpillars in a large- scale forest biodiversity experiment in subtropicalChina. We analysed how different metrics of lepidopteran phylogenetic diversity(Faith's PD, MPD, MNTD) and taxonomic diversity were influenced by multiple components of tree diversity (taxonomic, functional, phylogenetic).3. Our data from six sampling periods represent 7,204 mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) sequences of lepidopteran larvae, clustered into 461 mo-lecular operational taxonomic units. Lepidopteran abundance, the effective num-ber of species (irrespective of the focus on rare or common species) and Faith's PD and MPD (reflecting basal evolutionary splits), but not MNTD (reflecting re-cent evolutionary splits), significantly increased with experimentally manipulated ree species richness. Lepidopteran MNTD decreased with increasing tree MNTD. Path analyses showed that tree phylogenetic and functional diversity explained part, but not all of the effects of tree species richness on lepidopteran diversity. Importantly, tree diversity effects on lepidopteran diversity were to a large extent indirect, operating via changes in lepidopteran abundance. 4. Synthesis. Our study shows that evolutionary dependencies determine the response of herbivore communities to changes in host plant diversity. Incorporating a wider range of diversity metrics both at the level of producers and consumers can thus help to develop a more comprehensive understanding of the functional consequences of biodiversity change across trophic levels. Moreover, the dependence of trophic linkages on herbivore abundances underlines the need to address the consequences of current declines in insect abundances for ecosystem structure and functioning."],["dc.description.sponsorship","Chinese Academy of Science http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/501100002367"],["dc.description.sponsorship","National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars"],["dc.description.sponsorship","German Research Foundation http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/501100001659"],["dc.description.sponsorship","UCAS"],["dc.description.sponsorship","German Centre for Integrative Biodiversity Research (iDiv) Halle‐Jena‐Leipzig"],["dc.description.sponsorship","University of Zurich http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/501100006447"],["dc.description.sponsorship","National Science Foundation of China http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/501100001809"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1111/1365-2745.13273"],["dc.identifier.eissn","1365-2745"],["dc.identifier.issn","0022-0477"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/16821"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/91791"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Migrated from goescholar"],["dc.relation.eissn","1365-2745"],["dc.relation.issn","1365-2745"],["dc.relation.issn","0022-0477"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Fakultät für Forstwissenschaften und Waldökologie"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.access","openAccess"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.subject","BEF‐China; biodiversity and ecosystem functioning; Hill numbers; Lepidoptera; phylogenetic diversity; plant species richness"],["dc.subject.ddc","570"],["dc.title","Multiple components of plant diversity loss determine herbivore phylogenetic diversity in a subtropical forest experiment"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

In forests, tree species richness may influence these plant-mediated effects through increasing variation in the nutritional quality that herbivorous insects encounter. Seasonal progression can also shape the plant–herbivore relationship, with lowered leaf quality in later seasons. It is expected that specialist herbivores fare better than generalists in poorer nutritional-quality host plants, whereas generalists can benefit from dietary mixing in more variable neighborhoods. However, a clear understanding of how these factors interact to influence the diversity and functionality across multiple traits of herbivorous insect communities is lacking. In this study, we found support for the expectation of higher generalism of caterpillars in high-nutrition content trees, which also promoted higher abundance but lowered caterpillar species richness and smaller and less defended individuals. Increasing tree richness led to higher caterpillar species sharing between tree species, decreased trait variation, and increased caterpillar species richness per tree species. Our findings shed light on how leaf traits and changes in tree richness interact to influence the trait composition of key herbivores through fine-scale habitat partitioning in host plant neighborhoods.\r\n \r\n \r\n Abstract\r\n Nutritional content of host plants is expected to drive caterpillar species assemblages and their trait composition. These relationships are altered by tree richness-induced neighborhood variation and a seasonal decline in leaf quality. We tested how key functional traits related to the growth and defenses of the average caterpillar hosted by a tree species are shaped by nutritional host quality. We measured morphological traits and estimated plant community-level diet breadth based on occurrences from 1020 caterpillars representing 146 species in a subtropical tree diversity experiment from spring to autumn in one year. We focused on interspecific caterpillar trait variation by analyzing presence-only patterns of caterpillar species for each tree species. Our results show that tree richness positively affected caterpillar species-sharing among tree species, which resulted in lowered trait variation and led to higher caterpillar richness for each tree species. However, community-level diet breadth depended more on the nutritional content of host trees. Higher nutritional quality also supported species-poorer but more abundant communities of smaller and less well-defended caterpillars. This study demonstrates that the leaf nutritional quality of trees shapes caterpillar trait composition across diverse species assemblages at fine spatial scales in a way that can be predicted by ecological theory."],["dc.description.sponsorship","Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation)"],["dc.description.sponsorship","University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (UCAS)"],["dc.description.sponsorship","Deutsches Zentrum für integrative Biodiversitätsforschung Halle-Jena-Leipzig (German Centre for Integrative Biodiversity Research (iDiv) Halle-Jena-Leipzig)"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.3390/insects13121100"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/118473"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.relation.eissn","2075-4450"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.title","Leaf Nutritional Content, Tree Richness, and Season Shape the Caterpillar Functional Trait Composition Hosted by Trees"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

We find that plant species richness effects on consumer species richness are consistently positive and mediated by elevated structural and functional diversity of the plant communities. The importance of these diversity components differs across trophic levels and ecosystems, cautioning against ignoring the fundamental ecological complexity of biodiversity effects.

In deciduous forests, spiders are an integral part of the forest floor food web. In the present study, patterns of spider diversity and community structure are related to diversity of deciduous forest stands in the Hainich National Park (Thuringia). In 2005, pitfall trapping and quantitative forest floor sampling were conducted in nine plots of forest stands with one (Diversity Level 1), three (DL 2) and five (DL 3) major deciduous tree species. Species richness, measured with both methods, as well as spider abundance in forest floor samples were highest in stands with medium diversity (DL 2) and lowest in pure beech stands (DL 1). The Shannon-Wiener index and spider numbers in pitfall traps decreased from DL 1 to DL 3, while the Shannon-Wiener index in forest floor samples increased in the opposite direction. Spider community composition differed more strongly between single plots than between diversity levels. Altogether, no general relationship between increasing tree species diversity and patterns of diversity and abundance in spider communities was found.
