Plant-insect interactions in fragmented landscapes
T Tscharntke, R Brandl - Annual Reviews in Entomology, 2004 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract Population and community ecology need a large-scale perspective because local
patterns (of biodiversity) and processes (trophic interactions) are influenced by the regional …

Characteristics of insect populations on habitat fragments: a mini review
Modern human-dominated landscapes are typically characterized by intensive land-use and
high levels of habitat destruction, often resulting in sharply contrasted habitat mosaics …

The influences of landscape structure on butterfly distribution and movement: a review
We review the literature on the influence of landscape structure on butterfly distribution and
movement. We start by examining the definition of landscape commonly used in spatial …

Responses of insect herbivores and herbivory to habitat fragmentation: a hierarchical meta‐analysis
Loss and fragmentation of natural habitats can lead to alterations of plant–animal
interactions and ecosystems functioning. Insect herbivory, an important antagonistic …

Island theory, matrix effects and species richness patterns in habitat fragments
Island biogeography theory, created initially to study diversity patterns on islands, is often
applied to habitat fragments. A key but largely untested assumption of this application of …

Effects of habitat area, isolation, and landscape diversity on plant species richness of calcareous grasslands
Calcareous grasslands harbour a high biodiversity, but are highly fragmented and
endangered in central Europe. We tested the relative importance of habitat area, habitat …

Interacting effects of landscape context and habitat quality on flower visiting insects in agricultural landscapes
D Kleijn, F Van Langevelde - Basic and Applied Ecology, 2006 - Elsevier
