Saproxylic beetles depend on diverse microhabitats that are exploited by different species
assemblages. We focused on analysing the functional trait patterns and functional diversity …

The specialization of ecological networks provides important insights into possible
consequences of biodiversity loss for ecosystem functioning. However, mostly mutualistic …

Tree hollows are fascinating microcosms that host a rich saproxylic insect assemblage. One
of the most peculiar characteristics of this habitat is that both biotic and abiotic factors affect …

Tree hollows are keystone structures for saproxylic fauna and host numerous endangered
species. However, not all tree hollows are equal. Many variables including physical, biotic …

On the basis of theoretical predictions, pollination networks seem to be resilient to random
node elimination but sensitive to targeted exclusion. However, such predictions have a very …

Background Flight performance and dispersal behaviour can differ between sexes, resulting
in sex-biased dispersal. The primary sex ratio of populations may also explain dispersal bias …

The choice of sampling methods to survey saproxylic beetles is a key aspect to assessing
conservation strategies for one of the most endangered assemblages in Europe. We …

Deadwood and microhabitats play a fundamental role in many forest ecosystem processes.
Deadwood provides the substrate for a multitude of wood-dependent organisms, as well as …

Tree hollows offer an ideal niche for saproxylic insects in mature Mediterranean forests,
where Diptera and Coleoptera are the richest groups. Co-occurrence is frequently observed …
