DarkDivNet is a global network to explore the dark diversity of plant communities. In the beginning of 2024 we had received data from 119 study areas, including over 5500 vegetation plots. In April 2025 the first paper from DarkDivNet was published in Nature revealing a global negative relationship between human footprint index and community completeness! We are still welcoming new members to our network who wish to sample dark diversity in their region.| Macroecology workgroup
