Although understanding the change in species composition from local to regional scales (?-diversity) is a central theme in ecology and biogeography, studies often reached different conclusions as to the fundamental patterns in ?-diversity. For example, niche compression hypothesis predicted higher ?-diversity at lower latitudes. Studies comparing natural local sites with human-modified local sites are no different. Kitching et al. sampled moths in primary and logged
