• Small scale additions of native plants fail to increase beneficial insect richness in urban gardens (2011, background): “Thus, gardens rarely serve as source habitats for butterflies, although they do commonly provide floral resources for migrating or dispersing adults (Clark et al., 2007; Di Mauro et al., 2007).”
• Local and landscape drivers of arthropod abundance, richness, and trophic composition in urban habitats (2013, background): “…wildlife habitat fragmentation and transformation via paving and roadways, changes in the local climate, pollution, and a loss of species richness, including arthropods (Pyle et al. 1981; Niemelä 1999; McIntyre 2000; Marzluff 2001; McKinney 2002; Miller and Hobbs 2002; Clark et al. 2007).”
