Insect community composition and trophic guild structure in decaying logs from eastern Canadian pine-dominated forests (2006, background): “Many physical and chemical changes occur during the course of wood decomposition (Lambert et al., 1980), and consequently a log’s habitat value for different insects may vary as the resources within it change over time (Grove, 2002a).”
Hollow oaks and beetle conservation: the significance of the surroundings (2010, background): “Several earlier studies have found that tree size is an important factor explaining species richness of saproxylic beetles in general (Martikainen et al. 1999; Grove 2002), as well as the occurrence of several red-listed species inhabiting oak hollows (Ranius 2002a, b).”
Targets for maintenance of dead wood for biodiversity conservation based on extinction thresholds (2006, background): “…species when /100 m3 ha 1 1 ha Penttilä et al.
