Worldwide insect declines: An important message, but interpret with caution
Ecologists and conservationists have long studied global declines in biodiversity, but insects—
despite their abundance and diversity—are underrepresented in such assessments.
Sánchez‐Bayo and Wyckhuys (2019) recently compiled and reviewed long‐term insect
surveys from the peer‐reviewed literature. They report high average rates of decline in
entomofauna and suggest 40% of the world's insect species could go extinct within decades.
We welcome this detailed focus on insect declines: their consistent underrepresentation is a …
