Malaise traps are important tools for the large-scale collection of arthropod taxa. Here, an
extensive review of the history and literature concerning Malaise and canopy traps is given …

Studies on the vertical distribution patterns of arthropods in temperate deciduous forests
reveal highly stratified (ie, unevenly vertically distributed) communities. These patterns are …

Given their popularity with naturalists and collectors, and in some cases their economic
importance, it is remarkable how little is known about the basic biology of most cerambycid …

Commensal microorganisms have significant impacts on the health of many insect hosts.
Little is known, however, about the structure of commensal bacterial communities associated …

Longhorn and jewel beetles are often moved intercontinentally within woody materials. The
common use of hardwoods in solid wood-packaging requires efficient trapping protocols for …

Spatial distribution of arthropods in woodlands has crucial implications for biodiversity
conservation and forest management. However, its determinants are insufficiently known. In …

Studies on the vertical distribution of arthropods in temperate forests have revealed the
uneven vertical distribution of communities. Many factors influence these patterns …

1. Despite a growing interest in forest canopy biology, very few studies have examined the
vertical distribution of forest bees. In this study, bees were sampled using 12 pairs of flight …

Conserving saproxylic beetles in temperate forests will require a better understanding of
habitat requirements. So far, quantitative community studies have rarely considered their …

Résumé Les coléoptères saproxyliques constituent un groupe riche en espèces, souvent
petites et cryptiques, et difficiles à échantillonner. Différentes méthodes sont …
