Are Water Beetles Good Indicators of Biodiversity in Mediterranean Aquatic Ecosystems? The Case of the Segura River Basin (SE Spain) (2006, background): “Two types of biodiversity indicator can be differentiated depending, on the spatial scale: indicators at local scale (alpha-diversity) and indicators for biodiversity conservation at a regional or national scale (Duelli and Obrist 2003).”
Biological Control of Insect Pests in Agroecosystems: Effects of Crop Management, Farming Systems, and Seminatural Habitats at the Landscape Scale: A Review (2010, background): “Duelli and Obrist (2003) reported that for short-term pest control considerations, the abundance of beneficial organisms may appear more important than species richness, because prey and hosts are reduced by the number of antagonistic individuals rather than by species number.”
Biodiversity: Function and Assessment in Agricultural Areas: A Review (2005, background): “The Duelli and Obrist [37] approach presents a biodiversity concept which manages several functions or ecological services.”
Biodiversity and agri-environmental indicators: general scopes and skills with special reference to the habitat level (2003, methodology): “For a rational biodiversity assessment of arthropods, several procedures are suggested (Duelli and Obrist, 2003; Cranston and Hillman, 1992; Oliver and Beattie, 1996):”
Response of arthropod species richness and functional groups to urban habitat structure and management (2010, background): “Urban fauna may include generalist and/or exotic species that are not considered to be of interest for conservation (Duelli and Obrist 2003).”
Vegetation increases the abundance of natural enemies in vineyards (2009, background): “Agroecosystems such as vineyards can be recolonized from perennial habitats by the groups represented here, including spiders, syrphids, staphylinids, parasitoids, predatory mites (e.g., Samu et al., 1999; Duelli and Obrist, 2003).”
Massively Introduced Managed Species and Their Consequences for Plant–Pollinator Interactions (2017, background): “…are highly disturbed landscapes, characterized by a heterogeneous mosaic of habitats, strong spatial and temporal instability (Garder, 1996) and substantial reduction of the quality and quantity of seminatural areas (Benton et al., 2003; Duelli and Obrist, 2003; Tscharntke et al., 2005).”
Weeds for bees? A review (2015, background): “There is a correlation between landscape complexity (including semi-natural features), floral diversity and availability and bee diversity (Duelli and Obrist 2003; Le Féon et al. 2010).”
Structural indicators of spider communities across the forest plantation cycle (2005, background): “nine steps in the selection of potential biodiversity indicators for terrestrial invertebrates and these have been summarised into three main steps by Duelli and Obrist (2003). Firstly, the particular element of biodiversity (i.”
The role of ants in conservation monitoring: If, when, and how (2006, background): “Similarly, diversity indices which include richness and evenness (e.g., Shannon or Simpson’s indices) can also be misleading, as they lose important information such as species identity and vary in sensitivity to rare and dominant species (Magurran, 1988; Noss, 1990; Duelli and Obrist, 2003).”
Forest and woodland stand structural complexity: Its definition and measurement (2005, background): “(2001), Ziegler (2000), Ferreira and Prance (1999), Uuttera et al.”
