Land‐use change causes shifts in species richness, which can be delayed. However, beta‐diversity patterns and especially the relative role of species replacement and nestedness in these situations with time‐lagged extinctions and colonisations remain unknown. We aim to (a) quantify beta‐diversity change, species replacement and nestedness for vascular plants along a grassland–forest succession...
The factors governing community assemblages in fragmented habitats remain a challenging topic in ecology, especially in the present context of global change. We studied the colonisation of holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) woodland by specialist Lepidoptera in an afforested savannah‐like landscape that has emerged as a result of the abandonment of croplands. We sampled herbivorous caterpillars for 5 years...
Changes in species richness along the ecological succession gradient may be strongly determined by coexisting extinction debts of species from the original habitats and colonization credits of those from the replacing habitats. The magnitude of these processes and their causes remain largely unknown. We explored the extinction debt and colonization credit for grassland and forest specialist plants,...
