Can roadside habitat lead monarchs on a route to recovery?
Journal of Insect Conservation - Tập 20 - Trang 1047-1057 - 2016
The Eastern North American monarch butterfly population has severely declined
over the past decade. The decreasing availability of larval host plants
(milkweeds) due to the use of herbicide-tolerant crops has been implicated in
this decline. Roadsides could provide additional habitat for monarchs. In this
study we document the occurrence of milkweed and monarchs on roadsides, and
discuss whether r...
The potential of diversion structures to reduce roadway mortality of the endangered Hine’s emerald dragonfly (Somatochlora hineana)
Journal of Insect Conservation - Tập 19 - Trang 449-455 - 2015
Roadways near wetlands and ponds inflict high roadkill rates on a wide variety
of taxa. For threatened or endangered species that typically do not have large
adult populations, fast reproduction rates, and/or rapid recolonization rates,
such mortality is likely to have significant population consequences. Thus,
exploring ways to reduce roadkill rates will have considerable conservation
benefits. I...
Insect conservation on islands: setting the scene and defining the needs

Habitat Fragmentation and Burying Beetle Abundance and Success
Journal of Insect Conservation - Tập 4 - Trang 245-252 - 2000
Four species of burying beetle (Nicrophorus marginatus F., N. tomentosus Weber,
N. orbicollis Say and N. defodiens Mannerheim) are attracted to small, fresh
mouse carcasses in northern Michigan. The number of burying beetles and their
success (burial of a carcass) were greater in woodlands than in edge or field
habitats. Species diversity was least in open fields as assessed by two
different indic...
Genetic and morphological divergence at different spatiotemporal scales in the grasshopper Mioscirtus wagneri (Orthoptera: Acrididae)
Journal of Insect Conservation - Tập 16 Số 1 - Trang 103-110 - 2012
Populations of a shrub-feeding butterfly thrive after introduction of restorative shrub cutting on formerly abandoned calcareous grassland
Journal of Insect Conservation - Tập 19 - Trang 457-464 - 2015
Calcareous grasslands are one of the most species-rich semi-natural habitat
types. However, area and species richness have considerably decreased,
particularly due to the cessation of grazing or mowing. Accordingly, habitat
restoration has become an important issue in the conservation of these
grasslands. The aim of this study was to analyse the role of shrub cutting as a
measure to restore habita...

Forecasts of butterfly future richness change in the southwest Mediterranean. The role of sampling effort and non-climatic variables
Journal of Insect Conservation - Tập 26 - Trang 639-650 - 2022
We estimated the potential impact of Global Warming on the species richness of
Iberian butterflies. First, we determined the grid size that maximized the
balance between geographic resolution, area coverage and environmental
representativeness. Contemporary richness was modelled in several alternative
ways that differed in how sampling effort was controlled for, and in whether the
non-climatic var...
Forage use and niche partitioning by non-native bumblebees in New Zealand: implications for the conservation of their populations of origin
Journal of Insect Conservation - Tập 14 - Trang 607-615 - 2010
Bumblebees were introduced into New Zealand from the UK approximately 120 years
ago and four species became established. Two of these, Bombus terrestris and B.
hortorum, are common in Europe whilst two, B. ruderatus and B. subterraneus,
have experienced declines, and the latter is now extinct in the UK. The presence
of these species in New Zealand presents an opportunity to study their ecology
in ...
