• The diversity and conservation of plant reproductive and dispersal functional traits in human‐dominated tropical landscapes (2006, background): “…excluded for logistical reasons (our plant survey was already extremely large) and most importantly because they represented a separate vegetation layer with a very large, distinct flora supporting a largely distinct animal fauna (Harrison 1962; Pearson 1971; DeVries & Walla 2001; Walther 2002).”
• The value of primary, secondary and plantation forests for fruit-feeding butterflies in the Brazilian Amazon (2007, methodology): “We placed an additional eight traps in the canopy of primary forest to sample the canopy fauna ( Devries & Walla 2001; Fermon et al . 2005; Dumbrell & Hill 2005).”
• Studies with Butterfly Bait Traps: An Overview (2014, unknown): “Bait replacement (between 24 to 48 hours at the utmost) is suggested to keep equivalent attractiveness throughout sampling days, regardless the kind of bait used (DeVries and Walla 2001; Uehara-Prado et al. 2007).”
• Additive Partitioning of Species Diversity across Multiple Spatial Scales: Implications for Regional Conservation of Biodiversity (2003, methodology): “To date, additive partitioning has been used primarily as a descriptive tool to quantify how diversity is partitioned among spatial (Wagner et al. 2000), temporal (DeVries & Walla 2001), or vertical (DeVries et al. 1997) dimensions.”
• Seasonality of a Diverse Beetle Assemblage Inhabiting Lowland Tropical Rain Forest in Australia (2009, background): “…activity and diversity peak during the wettest part of the year (Owen & Chanter 1970, Wolda 1978, Denlinger 1980, Smythe 1982, Frith & Frith 1985, Hammond 1990, Hill 1993, Novotný & Basset 1998, DeVries & Walla 2001) rather then the driest (Boinski & Fowler 1989, Basu 1997, Dibog et al. 1998).”
• Spatial hierarchical approach in community ecology: a way beyond high context-dependency and low predictability in local phenomena (2004, methodology): “Recently, the spatial hierarchical approach has been applied increasingly in community ecology (e.g., Lawton et al. 1993; DeVris et al. 1997, 1999; Peltonen et al. 1998; DeVris and Walla 2001; Gering et al. 2002; Chase and Leibold 2002; Boyero 2003; Sunahara and Mogi 2004).”
• The additive partitioning of species diversity: recent revival of an old idea (2002, background): “Beta diversity is no longer relegated to describing change only along an environmental gradient.”
• Forest use and vertical stratification in fruit-feeding butterflies of Sulawesi, Indonesia: impacts for conservation (2005, background): “Vertical stratification The nymphalid community baited during this study showed a clear vertical structure similar to previous findings in DeVries (1988); Beccaloni (1997); DeVries et al. (1997, 1999); DeVries and Walla (2001); Schulze et al. (2001); Fermon (2002); Fermon et al. (2003).”
• Monitoring arthropods in a tropical landscape: relative effects of sampling methods and habitat types on trap catches (2009, background): “2000; Underwood and Fisher 2006), termites (Jones and Eggelton 2000), or butterflies (Sparrow et al. 1994; DeVries and Walla 2001).”
• Diversity of Interactions: A Metric for Studies of Biodiversity (2010, background): “…Yanayacu Biological Station & Center for Creative Studies, c/o Foch 721 y Amazonas, Quito, Ecuador 4 Department of Biological Sciences, Wright State University, Dayton, Ohio 45435, U.S.A. 5 Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Tulane University, New Orleans, Louisiana 70118, U.S.A.”
• More than just indicators: A review of tropical butterfly ecology and conservation (2010, background): “The complex vertical structuring of tropical forests and tropical butterfly communities can further complicate matters (DeVries et al., 1997; DeVries and Walla, 2001; Molleman et al., 2006).”
• A diversity of beta diversities: straightening up a concept gone awry. Part 1. Defining beta diversity as a function of alpha and gamma diversity (2010, background): “Several researchers have used these measures to quantify compositional (dis)similarity between sampling units (DeVries et al. 1997, DeVries and Walla 2001, Fournier and Loreau 2001, Ricotta 2003, Munos et al. 2008).”
• Allocation of larval and adult resources to reproduction in a fruit‐feeding butterfly (2004, unknown): “Rotting fruit is also a major adult food source for a large number of Lepidoptera, particularly in the tropics (e.g. DeVries et al. 1997; DeVries & Walla 2001).”
• Vertical and Temporal Patterns of Biodiversity of Fruit-Feeding Butterflies in a Tropical Forest in Uganda (2004, background): “In concert with previous investigations in Neotropical forests (DeVries et al. 1997, 1999; DeVries and Walla 2001), this study confirms the utility of longterm, standardized sampling in diverse tropical butterfly communities.”
