Descripción

The data we present are part of the long-term project SLAM (Long Term Ecological Study of the Impacts of Climate Change in the natural forest of Azores) aiming to assess the impact of biodiversity erosion drivers on Azorean native biota, using long-term ecological data. Additionally to SLAM traps, nocturnal Active Aerial Searching and nocturnal Foliage Beating methods were used to sample, between 2017 and 2018, the arthropod biodiversity on two historical urban gardens of Azores, the “Jardim Botânico” of Faial Island, and “Jardim Duque da Terceira” of Terceira Island. This publication includes new data and updates the knowledge about the arthropod diversity and taxonomy of Arteaga et al. 2020, and contributes to the study of the urban gardens role to conservation of native biota.

Identificador Arthropods_Azorean_Urban_Gardens
Fuentes de Financiación FEDER in 85% and by Azorean Public funds by 15% through Operational Program Azores 2020, under the project Green Garden Azores (ACORES-01-0145-FEDER-000070), the project AZORESBIOPORTAL (ACORES-01-0145-FEDER-000072) and also the project Portal da Biodiversidade dos Açores (2022-2023) - PO Azores Project - M1.1.A/INFRAEST CIENT/001/2022.
Descripción del área de estudio The study area comprises Terceira (total area: 400.2 km²; maximum elevation: 1021 m a.s.l.) and Faial (total area: 172 km2; maximum elevation 1043 m a.s.l.) islands. They are located in the central group of the Azores archipelago (North Atlantic), roughly at 38°43'17''N 27°13'14''W. The climate of the archipelago is temperate oceanic, characterized by regular and abundant rainfall, high levels of relative humidity and persistent winds. The landscape of the islands is mainly dominated by urban and agricultural areas at the lowest elevations; pasturelands and exotic tree plantations inland; and native forests located at highest elevations (Gaspar et al. 2011). The study was carried out on two botanical gardens, named “Jardim Botânico”, in Faial Island, and “Jardim Duque da Terceira” in Terceira Island.
Descripción del diseño Passive Flight Interception traps (SLAM traps), nocturnal Active Aerial Searching (AAS) and nocturnal Foliage Beating (FBN) methods were used to sample the arthropod biodiversity on two historical urban gardens of Azores: the “Jardim Botânico”, located in Horta city, in Faial Island, and “Jardim Duque da Terceira” located in Angra do Heroísmo city, in Terceira Island. AAS and FBN are reliable methods to collect samples of arthropods that are mainly active during night (Borges et al. 2018). The collected specimens were preserved in ethanol 96%. SLAM traps were placed in both gardens in order to collect mainly diurnal flying and non-flying arthropods, through interception and conservation on a propylene-glycol recipient of the captured specimens (Borges et al. 2017). The SLAM traps were placed during 6 consecutive months, checked monthly. The study was conducted between April 2017 and June 2018. For more details about sampling methods, see Arteaga et al. 2020. Collected samples were sorted and posteriorly identified by an expert taxonomist (P.A.V.B) in laboratory.

Métodos de muestreo

Passive Flight Interception traps (SLAM traps), nocturnal Active Aerial Searching (AAS) and nocturnal Foliage Beating (FBN) methods were used to sample the arthropod biodiversity (Arachnida, Chilopoda, Diplopoda and Insecta Classes) on two historical urban gardens of the Azores, between 2017 and 2018: the “Jardim Botânico”, located in Horta city, in Faial Island, and “Jardim Duque da Terceira” located in Angra do Heroísmo city, in Terceira Island. AAS consists on collecting arthropods found above knee-level by hand, forceps, pooter or brush and immediately transferring them into vials containing ethanol 96%. FBN consists on beat tree and shrub branches with a wooden stick, and collect the fallen specimens on a beating tray, posteriorly transferred to vials containing ethanol 96%. AAS and FBN are reliable methods to collect samples of arthropods that are mainly active during night (Borges et al. 2018). The SLAM traps consists on structures of 110 cm3 designed to intercept flying and non-flying arthropods. They were placed in the gardens during 6 consecutive months, checked monthly. For more details about sampling methods, see Arteaga et al. (2020). Collected samples were sorted and posteriorly identified by an expert taxonomist (P.A.V.B) in laboratory.

Área de Estudio The study was conducted on two urban gardens, the “Jardim Botânico”, located in Horta city, in Faial Island, and “Jardim Duque da Terceira” located in Angra do Heroísmo city, in Terceira Island. The first, is mainly composed by endemic and native plant species, but also includes some introduced species common and widespread in the Azores. The second garden includes mainly collections of introduced trees, shrubs and palms from worldwide (see for more details Arteaga et al. 2020).
Control de Calidad All collected specimens were identified by an expert taxonomist (P.A.V.B) in laboratory.
