Description

Anthropogenic disturbances, such as extensive topsoil removal, pose severe threats to ecosystem integrity, and consequently restoration outcomes depend heavily on biotic interactions that sustain ecosystem functions. Dung beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeinae) act as bioindicators and ecosystem engineers, notably by mediating secondary seed dispersal and promoting soil bioturbation.
