The robustness and restoration of a network of ecological networks
Understanding species' interactions and the robustness of interaction networks to species
loss is essential to understand the effects of species' declines and extinctions. In most …

Structure in plant–animal interaction assemblages
We present a comprehensive approach to detect pattern in assemblages of plant and animal
species linked by interactions such as pollination, frugivory or herbivory. Simple structural …

Complementary molecular information changes our perception of food web structure
How networks of ecological interactions are structured has a major impact on their
functioning. However, accurately resolving both the nodes of the webs and the links …

Habitat fragmentation effects on trophic processes of insect‐plant food webs
Habitat fragmentation is the transformation of once‐extensive landscapes into smaller,
isolated remnants surrounded by new types of habitat. There is ample evidence of …

Revealing secret liaisons: DNA barcoding changes our understanding of food webs
1. How food webs are structured will affect how species dynamically interact. To date, the
construction of quantitative food webs has largely been based on morphological species …

Habitat fragmentation and species loss across three interacting trophic levels: effects of life‐history and food‐web traits
Not all species are likely to be equally affected by habitat fragmentation; thus, we evaluated
the effects of size of forest remnants on trophically linked communities of plants, leaf‐mining …

Structure of a diverse tropical forest insect–parasitoid community
Summary 1 Quantitative host–parasitoid food webs are descriptions of community structure
that include data on the abundance of hosts and parasitoids, and the frequency of links …

Food web structure of three guilds of natural enemies: predators, parasitoids and pathogens of aphids
FJF Van Veen, CB Müller, JK Pell, HCJ Godfray - Journal of Animal Ecology, 2008 - JSTOR
1. Most communities of insect herbivores are unlikely to be structured by resource
competition, but they may be structured by apparent competition mediated by shared natural …
