Agricultural management, vegetation traits and landscape drive orthopteran and butterfly diversity in a grassland–forest mosaic: a multi‐scale approach (2009, unknown): “The negative relation with sward height was opposite to that found by Gardiner et al. (2002) in pastures, as grazing tends to create short turfs with increasing intensity.”
Vascular plant and Orthoptera diversity in relation to grassland management and landscape composition in the European Alps (2007, background): “2002), with strong consequences on the Orthoptera communities (Van Wingerden, Van Kreveld & Bongers 1992; Willott & Hassall 1998; Gardiner et al. 2002; Gardiner 2006).”
Losers, winners, and opportunists: How grassland land‐use intensity affects orthopteran communities (2016, background): “Orthoptera are widespread across grasslands and often sensitive to environmental changes (Guido and Gianelle 2001, Gardiner et al. 2002, Jonas and Joern 2007, Bharamal and Koli 2014), which makes them suitable for studying landuse effects on biodiversity.”
Review of the Methods Frequently Used to Estimate the Abundance of Orthoptera in Grassland Ecosystems (2005, methodology): “parallelus become less numerous in tall vegetation (Gardiner et al. 2002).”
