Abstract
⺠Physical disturbance treatments were tested to support early-successional biota. ⺠Specialist carabids and plants increased with greater disturbance intensity. ⺠Ant assemblages did not respond, spiders were left depauperate at high intensities. ⺠Ecological connectivity will be enhanced by long-lasting intense physical disturbance. ⺠This study shows the need for multi-taxa assessment of management outcomes.
