Interspecific plant functional variation prevails over intraspecific variation in driving spider beta diversity

1. Non‐trophic interactions between plants and animals can affect community structure and species trait composition. However, it is unclear how changes in intra‐ and interspecific morphological traits of plant species affect non‐trophic interactions at a metacommunity scale. Additionally, whether plant evolutionary history determines taxonomic and functional diversity of plant‐dwelling predators is an open question.
