Biodiversity responses to vegetation structure in a fragmented landscape: ant communities in a peri-urban coastal dune system

© 2016 Springer International Publishing Switzerland. Habitat fragmentation often results in significant degradation of the structure and composition of remnant natural vegetation, leading to substantial biodiversity decline. Ants are an ecologically dominant faunal group known to be sensitive to ve...
