The expansion of monocultures and the overuse of agrochemicals have resulted in the loss
of beneficial insects and disruption of ecosystem services such as pollination and biological …

Is there a maximum number of species that can coexist? Intuitively, we assume an upper
limit to the number of species in a given assemblage, or that a lineage can produce, but …

The intensification of urban and agricultural use in the landscape is the major driver of
biodiversity loss and the consequent decrease of ecosystem services provided by insects …

Insects are a functionally diverse group, with economically relevant roles on key ecosystem
