Consequences of fire and grazing to conservation of arthropod functional diversity in a protected Afrotropical savanna
Fires and grazing disrupt the diversity and composition of biological organisms and their
functions in the savannas. In the current study, we assessed the impact of fire and grazing …

Climate‐Driven Vegetation Characteristics Shape Phytophagous and Carnivorous Insect Diversity in South African Savannahs
Aim Despite the evidenced importance of insects in savannah ecosystems, the drivers of
their diversity patterns remain poorly understood, particularly in the Afrotropical region. This …

Temperature and tree number drive tree crown‐dwelling arthropod diversity in Brazilian semi‐arid cities
AB Viana‐Junior, LFS Silva… - Insect Conservation … - Wiley Online Library
Urbanisation is one of the most severe land use changes with significant negative impacts
on several biological groups. However, the response of arthropods to this process is still …
