Habitat fragmentation is widespread globally, but the effects of fragmentation on populations and communities are often unclear. Because species responses to fragmentation are interdependent, examining how fragmentation alters species interactions may clarify community responses to fragmentation. In a large, replicated fragmentation experiment, we tested the effects of inter-patch connectivity, patch-scale edge-to-area ratio, and within-patch distance from an edge on multiple co-occurring plant-arthropod interactions and pollination rate (measured by fruit-flower ratio). Using experimentally planted populations of the sandy-woods chaffhead Carphephorus bellidifolius, we measured three plant arthropod-interactions: plant-pollinator interactions, plant-florivore interactions, and plant-spider interactions (predators of pollinators). Connectivity increased pollinator visitation, highlighting the significance of connectivity for pollinator foraging. Across all arthropod groups, connectivity..., , # Habitat fragmentation affects plant-arthropod interactions through connectivity loss and edge effects
