A case study from Borneo using dung beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeoidea) as indicators0 aDoes reducedimpact logging help preserve biodiversity in tropica  a467-4750 v293 aThe role of reduced-impact logging on the preservation of biodiversity in tropical lowland dipterocarp rainforest is examined by looking at differences in dung beetle community structure between two sites logged in 1993: one harvested using reduced-impact methods and one using conventional techniques. Collections were made using two night intercept traps over 7 d, and samples were compared with previous collections made from primary forest (riverine and interior-forest) and older forest logged using conventional techniques (logged in 1981). Of the two 1993 sites, the higher diversity and species richness (S = 57, n = 969, alpha = 13.23, H' = 3.24) was recorded in the forest logged using reduced-impact techniques: the conventionally logged site had both lower diversity and species richness (S = 18. n = 1968, alpha = 8.88, H' = 1.89), and lacked some primary forest specialists present in the reduced-impact forest samples. The dung beetle community in the 1993 conventional logged site is similar to that of the conventional logging site harvested in 1981. Primary forest has a well-defined ecotone, from interior to riverine forest: both 1993 sites contain a mixture of interior-forest and riverine specialists that are usually spatially separated along this ecotone. Although the dung beetle assemblage in the forest harvested by reduced-impact logging is more similar to a primary interior-forest assemblage than the conventionally logged site, both 1993 sites have assemblages that are closer in similarity to assemblages from primary-riverine habitat than they are to ones from primary interior-forest. However, because the forest logged using reduced-impact logging techniques has a more equitable and diverse dung beetle assemblage and a greater number of interior-forest specialists than the conventionally logged site, this study suggests that reduced-impact logging has better preserved the primary forest assemblage than conventional logging techniques.10adiversity10aecotone (biological conservation 2007)10aedge effects10amodification10aselective logging1 aDavis, Andrew, J.  uhttps://scarabnet.myspecies.info/does-reduced-impact-logging-help-preserve-biodiversity-tropical-rainforests-case-study-borneo-using-00889nas a2200241   4500008004100000245012100041210006900162300001200231490000600243653004200249653001600291653002000307653002000327653001700347653001600364653002300380653002600403653002000429100002200449700002100471700001700492856013800509       2000                        eng d00aThe role of local and regional processes in shaping dung beetle communities in tropical forest plantations in Borneo0 arole of local and regional processes in shaping dung beetle comm  a281-2920 v910aBorneo (biological conservation 2007)10adung beetle10alocal abundance10alocal processes10amodification10aplantations10aregional processes10aregional species pool10atropical forest1 aDavis, Andrew, J.1 aHuijbregts, Hans1 aKrikken, Jan  uhttps://scarabnet.myspecies.info/role-local-and-regional-processes-shaping-dung-beetle-communities-tropical-forest-plantations-borneo
