摘要：Understanding the multi-scale effects of arable land landscape on epigaeic arthropod diversity is essential for biodiversity conservation and agroecosystem services. Our study explored the overall effect of landscape elements on epigaeic arthropod diversity at three scales of landscape, habitat, and field. We selected 11 areas to sample using the trap method, and construct models of landscape elements and biodiversity data. The results showed that: (1) On the landscape scale, 1500 m was the optimal radius. Shannon’s diversity index and interspersion and juxtaposition index can explain the diversity of epigaeic arthropods at the level of 76.7%. (2) On the habitat scale (the radius less than 100 m), habitat types significantly affected the species number, Pielou evenness index, and individual number of epigaeic arthropods (p < 0.05). The distribution of epigaeic arthropods had an obvious margin effect. (3) On the field scale, we also revealed The Shannon diversity index and Pielou evenness index of herb vegetation structure can explain the change of epigaeic arthropod community structure at the level of 69.1%. We believe that an appropriate scale is the best lever to protect agricultural biodiversity. Our research can promote multi-scale integrated conservation of regional biodiversity and sustainable development of agricultural systems.
