As forests are cut down, altered and fragmented, the communities of
organisms associated with them are also affected. Predictions of
global species extinction rates based on forest loss range 1% to
10% each decade. Because arthropods comprise the largest component
of animal species richness, it is inevitable that many arthropod
species will become extinct. Millions of these species are thought
to live in the forest canopy. During the last twenty years
recognition of the importance of canopy arthropods to global
biodiversity and the crucial roles arthropods play in forests has
led to a revolution in the study and understanding of the arthropod
community structure in the forest canopy. Recent advances have been
greatly aided by the development of improved sampling techniques
and new methods of access to the forest canopy. Canopy Arthropods
brings together for the first time a wide range of the most recent
studies of arthropods living in forest canopies and comes from a
truly international team of contributors.
