Abstract Global biodiversity gradients are generally expected to reflect greater species replacement closer to the equator. However, empirical validation of global biodiversity gradients largely relies on vertebrates, plants, and other less diverse taxa. Here we assess the temporal and spatial dynamics of global arthropod biodiversity dynamics using a beta-diversity framework.

1 INTRODUCTION Marine sediments represent the largest ecosystem on Earth (Snelgrove, 1997). Among the macrofaunal groups inhabiting these sediments, polychaetous annelids are the most abundant (Hutchings, 1998). Despite their significant abundance, our current understanding of polychaete diversity remains incomplete. Only a fraction of the species has been discovered and described, leaving a large portion of the diversity unexplored (Appeltans et al., 2012; Pamungkas et al., 2019).
