Study focused on the invertebrate biodiversity residing on the trunks of oak trees throughout Sweden. Our research explores the variety of invertebrate species, their abundance, and the intricate phenological patterns across different latitudinal gradients. By combining traditional identification techniques with modern metabarcoding, we aim to deepen our understanding of these dynamic ecosystems, providing insights that could guide future conservation efforts.
