Global Arthropod beta-diversity is spatially and temporally structured by latitude

Aim: Global gradients in species biodiversity may or may not be associated with greater species replacement closer to the equator. Yet, empirical validation of these patterns has so far focused on less diverse taxa, with comparable assessments of mega-diverse groups historically constrained by the taxonomic impediment.
