摘要

为了保护对人类福祉至关重要的生态过程，需要对物种多样性与生态系统功能之间多维关系的机制理解。本文研究了在热带复杂景观Los Tuxtlas生物圈保护区(Los Tuxtlas Biosphere Reserve)中，屎壳虫群落的分类、功能和系统发育多样性，以及屎壳虫群落的聚集机制、森林覆盖率和景观破碎化程度对粪掩埋、土壤挖掘效率和粪蝇幼虫丰度的影响。在代表森林覆盖损失梯度(0%-100%)的15个景观中测量了屎壳郎的功能。从系统发育的角度来看，大型隧道蜣螂的聚集组合在整个景观中显示出最高的粪便掩埋效率。蝇幼虫丰度与屎壳虫的分类多样性和功能均匀性呈负相关。森林覆盖和景观破碎化对粪掩埋效果影响不显著，表明存在高度的功能冗余。粪埋效能主要由选择机制驱动，其中单个或几个系统发育接近的物种不成比例地影响给定的功能。蝇幼虫丰度受一种互补功能效应控制，即每种屎壳虫对蝇幼虫存活率的影响是叠加的。因此，通过不同的机制和不同的多样性维度来维持多种功能。高种类丰富的屎壳郎可能促进害虫蝇控制在热带景观，如Los Tuxtlas生物圈保护区。我们的研究结果强调了评估多样性的多个维度的必要性，因为每个维度都可以同时和对比地作用于物种组合的不同生态功能。

期刊介绍： To publish papers of the highest scientific quality within the general area of insect (and other arthropods) conservation and diversity covering topics ranging from ecological theory to practical management. Papers are invited on the following topics: Conservation genetics; Extinction debt; Long-term conservation planning and implementation; Global implications of local or national conservation actions; Management responses of species and communities; Captive breeding programs; Comparisons of restored and natural habitats; Biogeography; Global biodiversity; Metapopulation dynamics; Climate change: impacts on distributions and range; Invasive species: impacts and control; Effects of pollution; Genetic threats to diversity by introgression; Effects of fragmentation on diversity and distribution; Impact of agricultural and forestry practices on biodiversity; Enhancing urban environments for diversity and protection; Biodiversity action plans: can we scale up from insects?; Effectiveness and choice of indicator species; Soil biodiversity and interactions with above-ground biodiversity; Ecological interactions at local levels; Ecological and evolutionary factors influencing diversity and local, regional and global scales; Sustainable livelihoods and training on the ground; Integrating science and policy.
