20.500.12556/DiRROS-19593 Contrasting effects of altitude on species groups with different traits in a non-fragmented montane temperate forest Temperature has strong effects on species composition and traits. These effects can differ within and between species groups. Thermoregulation and mobility are traits which can be strongly affected by altitudinal distribution. Our aim was to investigate the influence of altitude on the species richness, abundance and composition of species groups with different trophic, thermoregulatory and mobility traits. Carabids (Coleoptera; Carabidae), hoverflies (Diptera: Syrphidae) and birds (Aves: Passeriformes) were counted in three altitudinal belts with a total elevation difference of 700 m (from 300 m to 1000 m a.s.l.) in the same habitat type (non-fragmented temperate montane mixed beech and fir forest). We found that endotherms and more mobile species (i.e. birds) had a smaller turnover than ectotherms (i.e. hoverflies) and less mobile species (i.e. carabids), from which we can predict that the former species will undergo a less extreme shift than the latter in global warming scenarios. Species turnover across the altitudinal gradient increased from birds to hoverflies to carabid beetles. The effect of altitude on phenology was different between the studied ectotherm species groups (carabids and hoverflies). Hoverflies experience a phenological delay of species richness and abundance at higher altitudes in spring, but not at the end of summer, which implies that hoverfly phenology is affected by a change in temperature, while carabid beetle abundance exhibited a delay in phenology in summer at higher altitudes. We suggest that species that are expected to be most affected by climate change, such as ectotherms and species with poor dispersal ability should be prioritised as the best indicators for monitoring and conservation management purposes. climate change Carabidae Syrphidae Aves altitudinal gradient species assemblage true false true Angleški jezik Ni določen Neznano 2024-07-20 04:02:25 2024-07-24 09:55:33 2024-07-25 04:14:46 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2019 0 0 Nasl. z nasl. zaslona; Opis vira z dne 12. 12. 2019; str. 99-121 Vol. 37 2019 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2019-12-11 598.2 1314-3301 10.3897/natureconservation.37.37145 5245007 https://natureconservation.pensoft.net/article/37145/ 1 62e754cd-462b-11ef-b487-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=27045 RAZ_De_Groot_Maarten_2019.pdf RAZ_De_Groot_Maarten_2019.pdf 1 1899D2CFF3F9D3874E0AB0A8A8FF0D67 825dcabb09daea0e576c18247c49dd1bb13b7059a160c0a1b10491ec73f811c3 a1b460c0-4981-11ef-b487-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=27260 Gozdarski inštitut Slovenije Nacionalni inštitut za biologijo 0 0 0
