Linear landscape elements such as hedgerows and road verges have the potential to mitigate the adverse effects of habitat fragmentation and climate change on species, for instance, by serving as a refuge habitat or by improving functional connectivity across the landscape. However, so far this hypothesis has not been evaluated at large spatial scal...

... In some European countries the area of such linear infrastructure habitats is even larger than the total protected natural area of the country (Jeusset et al., 2016). Linear landscape elements can support population viability by increasing habitat area and aiding the dispersal of species in the landscape (Vanneste et al., 2020). Furthermore, novel grassland habitats such as power line corridors, road verges and forest clear-cuts can have a high number of plant and insect species, including many species typically associated with traditionally managed semi-natural grasslands (Berg et al., 2011;Bergman et al., 2020;Phillips et al., 2019). ...
