Abstract:Riparian habitats are key landscape elements promoting regional biodiversity, particularly in areas where water availability is scarce. In Mediterranean Iberia, the microclimatic conditions that occur near rivers allow the development of humid riparian woodlands that differ markedly from those growing in equivalent upland areas, but resemble higher-latitude (Atlantic) formations in their structure and composition. However, the effects of this variation on the animal species assemblages inhabiting each woodland… Show more
