Unfortunately, these habitats are threatened, largely due to their reduction and fragmentation caused by land cover changes, where native forests give way to pastures and forests of Cryptomeria and Eucalyptus.<\/p>\n<h4>\u00bb Loss of habitat quality due to Invasive Alien Species (IAS)<\/h4>\n<p>Currently, the rapid advance and expansion of invasive species is the major threat to the populations of endemic beetles of the project. Plants such as Ginger Lily (Hedychium gardnerianum) and Hydrangea (Hydrangea macrophylla) cause changes in the structure of the habitat, including the soil cover by ferns and bryophytes, and allow the dispersion of other plants, also with potential for invasion.<\/p>\n<h4>\u00bb Loss of adequate micro-climatic conditions by climate change<\/h4>\n<p>Climate change is a present threat to any habitat, and consequently to the endemic beetle species that inhabit it. As these species are so dependent on the native hyper humid forest, the increase in drought periods is a worrying reality on medium and long term.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-3182","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v16.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Threats | Life Beetles Azores<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/threats\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Threats | Life Beetles Azores\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/threats\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Life Beetles Azores\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2020-11-16T13:13:43+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Artboard-e1604673924628.png\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"8001\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"4501\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/#organization\",\"name\":\"Life Beetles Azores\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/\",\"sameAs\":[],\"logo\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/#logo\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/logo.beetle.horizontal.png\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/logo.beetle.horizontal.png\",\"width\":316,\"height\":117,\"caption\":\"Life Beetles Azores\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/#logo\"}},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/\",\"name\":\"Life Beetles Azores\",\"description\":\"Reduzir riscos ambientais e ecol\\u00f3gicos a esp\\u00e9cies amea\\u00e7adas\",\"publisher\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/#organization\"},\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/?s={search_term_string}\",\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/threats\/#webpage\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/threats\/\",\"name\":\"Threats | Life Beetles Azores\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2020-07-13T16:55:18+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2020-11-16T13:13:43+00:00\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/threats\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/threats\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/threats\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Threats\"}]}]}<\/script>\n<!-- \/ Yoast SEO plugin. -->","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3182"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3182"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3182\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3310,"href":"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3182\/revisions\/3310"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lifebeetlesazores.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3182"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
