Threatened Plant, Animal, and Fungus Species in Swedish Forests: Distribution and Habitat Associations

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present knowledge on the distribution and habitat associations of 1487 threatened forest species in Sweden, made an attempt to identify structures and elements that are critical for their occurrence and suggest guidelines for the maintenance of threatened forest ecosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Substrate requirements of red-listed saproxylic invertebrates in Sweden.

TL;DR: To evaluate which qualities of dead wood have the highest conservational value for invertebrates, substrate requirements were recorded for all 542 saproxylic (wood-living) red-listed invertebrate species in Sweden to help decide how to optimize the conservation measures taken during forest operations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Felled or standing retained wood: it makes a difference for saproxylic beetles

TL;DR: It is concluded that retaining felled wood in addition to high stumps may provide an important means of diversifying the dead wood substrates, which may in turn increase the number of saproxylic species on a site.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long‐term priority effects among insects and fungi colonizing decaying wood

TL;DR: The study shows that variable priority effects may have long-lasting impact on community assembly in decaying wood, and exemplifies new possibilities for managing populations of threatened species by exploring links between early, well-understood species guilds and late, more poorly understood species Guilds.
Journal ArticleDOI

How climate change adaptation and mitigation strategies can threaten or enhance the biodiversity of production forests: Insights from Sweden

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the biodiversity implications of climate change adaptation and mitigation strategies (CCAMS) being implemented in the production forests of Sweden and find that CCAMS will often come into direct or partial conflict with Swedish biodiversity goals in production forests.
