Traversing the Great Lakes: Post-glacial colonization by a widespread terrestrial salamander
<p><strong>Aims:</strong> Glacial retreat at the end of the Pleistocene epoch opened vast expanses of emergent habitat in the northern hemisphere that were colonized by opportunistic taxa. However, species that undergo post-glacial expansion may have originated from one or several glacial refugia. We inferred the post-glacial expansion history of the Eastern Red-backed Salamander (<em>Plethodon cinereus</em>), a fully terrestrial species with a vast distribution despite severe dispersal limitations. Previous studies indicated populations south of the glacial boundary at the eastern and western limits of the distribution were closely related, suggesting either multiple refugia or an extraordinary post-glacial expansion event.</p> <p><strong>Location:</strong> Eastern North America.</p> <p><strong>Taxon:</strong> <em>Plethodon cinereus</em> (Green, 1818), Caudata: Plethodontidae.</p> <p><strong>Methods: </strong>We collected ddRAD-seq data from 106 individuals throughout the distribution of <em>P. cinereus</em>. We estimated phylogeographic structure, including finer-scale structure among the post-glacial populations. To test the origins and routes of colonization, we used ecological niche modeling, population trees, and analyses of directional range expansion.</p> <p><strong>Results: </strong>Analyses supported our hypothesis of a southeastern glacial refugium, with northward expansion along the Eastern Seaboard prior to westward invasion into the Great Lakes region, including southwestern expansion into unglaciated areas at the western end of the distribution. However, a distinct subgroup in the northwestern portion of the range raises the possibility of a second refugium near the ice-free Driftless Area.</p> <p><strong>Main conclusions:</strong> Based on our results, we hypothesize a southeastern refugium from which most of today's northern populations undertook extensive post-glacial colonization. Our results indicate a geographically non-linear colonization history for <em>P. cinereus</em>.</p>

A database of Defra statutory biodiversity metric unit values for terrestrial habitat samples across England, with plant, butterfly and bird species data
<p>Policies requiring biodiversity no net loss or net gain as an outcome of environmental planning have become more prominent worldwide, catalysing interest in biodiversity offsetting as a mechanism to compensate for development impacts on nature. Offsets rely on credible and evidence-based methods to quantify biodiversity losses and gains. Following the introduction<span> of the United Kingdom's Environment Act in November 2021, all new developments requiring planning permission in England are expected to demonstrate a 10% biodiversity net gain from 2024, calculated using the statutory biodiversity metric framework (Defra, 2023). </span><span>The metric is used to calculate both baseline and proposed post-development biodiversity units, and is </span>set to play an increasingly prominent role in nature conservation nationwide.<span> </span><span>The metric has so far </span>received limited scientific scrutiny.</p> <p><span>This dataset comprises a database of statutory biodiversity metric unit values for terrestrial habitat samples across England. For each habitat sample, we present </span><span>biodiversity units alongside five long-established single-attribute proxies for biodiversity (</span><span>species richness, individual abundance, number of threatened species, mean species range or population, mean species range or population change)</span><span>. </span><span>Data were compiled </span><span>for species from three taxa (vascular plants, butterflies, birds), from sites across England. The dataset includes 24 sites within </span>grassland, wetland, woodland and forest, sparsely vegetated land, cropland, heathland and shrub, i.e. <span>all terrestrial broad habitats except urban and individual trees. Species data were reused from long-term ecological change monitoring datasets</span> (mostly in the public domain), whilst biodiversity units were calculated following field visits. Fieldwork was carried out in April-October 2022 to calculate biodiversity units for the samples. <span>Sites were initially assessed using metric version 3.1, which was current at the time of survey, and were subsequently updated to the statutory metric for analysis using field notes and species data. </span>Species data <span>were derived from </span>24 <span>long-term ecological change monitoring</span> sites across the Environmental Change Network (ECN), Long Term Monitoring Network (LTMN) and Ecological Continuity Trust (ECT), collected between 2010 and 2020.</p>
