As the recognition of the importance of biological diversity in biological conservation grows,
an ongoing challenge is to develop metrics that can be used for effective conservation and …

Terrestrial Systems (https://www. nhm. ac. uk/our-science/our-work/biodiversity/predicts …

Aims We aim to document elevational richness patterns of geometrid moths in a globally
replicated, multi‐gradient setting, and to test general hypotheses on environmental and …

In the face of unprecedented loss of biodiversity, cross‐taxon correlates have been
proposed as a means of obtaining quantitative estimates of biodiversity for identifying …

Aim Temporal dynamics of biodiversity along tropical elevational gradients are unknown.
We studied seasonal changes of Lepidoptera biodiversity along the only complete forest …

Diversity patterns can show congruence across taxonomic groups. Consistent diversity
patterns allow the identification of indicator surrogates potentially representative of …

Actions for ecological restoration under the Great Green Wall (GGW) initiative in the northern
Sahel have been plant focused, paying scant attention to plant–animal interactions that are …

In most habitats, vegetation provides the main structure of the environment. This complexity
can facilitate biodiversity and ecosystem services. Therefore, measures of vegetation …

Globally plant species richness is a significant predictor of insect richness. Whether this is
the result of insect diversity responding directly to plant diversity, or both groups responding …

Insects are major pests of both natural and plantation forests in the tropics. This book is the
first to provide a broad-based, international review of this subject at a level suitable for …
