The chapter introduces the spatial distribution of biodiversity in landscapes. This distribution is strongly interconnected and depends on the spatial structure and characteristics of the territory elements of the landscape that have always hosted living species and communities and with which they have coevolved over time in close interrelation, highlighting the importance of landscape structure and habitat layout patches in determining species distribution patterns. A new approach to analyze the cross-scale spatial distribution of biodiversity is introduced in this perspective.
