Recent evidence for the climate change threat to Lepidoptera and other insects (2011, background): “It also has extremely limited dispersal (Hedin et al. 2008), so that persistence within woodlands is dependent on aggregations of old growth oak trees, and in fragmented habitats the species rarely moves between woodlands (Ranius 2000, 2007).”
Conflict between insect conservation and public safety: the case study of a saproxylic beetle (Osmoderma eremita) in urban parks (2010, background): “S ee th e le g en d o f ab b re v ia ti o n s in T ab le 1 200 m in Northern Europe (for Sweden: Ranius and Hedin 2001; Ranius 2006; Hedin et al. 2008) and reaches up to 700 m in Southern Europe (for France: Dubois and Vignon 2008).”
How much and at what scale? Multiscale analyses as decision support for conservation of saproxylic oak beetles (2012, background): “The majority of species with a significant response to oak density showed characteristic scales less than 700 m indicating that species living in hollow trees in general have low dispersal ability (Hedin et al., 2008).”
