• Where have all the beetles gone? Long‐term study reveals carabid species decline in a nature reserve in Northern Germany (2019, background): “Insects are of considerable importance for ecosystem functioning (Samways, 2005).”
• An evaluation of a GARP model as an approach to predicting the spatial distribution of non‐vagile invertebrate species (2006, methodology): “Understanding and delineating species distributions are an important tool used to address numerous issues in ecology, biogeography and evolution (Guisan & Thuiller, 2005) and are fundamental to the conservation of biodiversity (Samways, 2005).”
• Carabids.org – a dynamic online database of ground beetle species traits (Coleoptera, Carabidae) (2014, background): “Although insects represent large parts of the global biodiversity and they often assume key functions in ecosystems (Samways, 2005), databases on insect species traits are still underrepresented.”
• Effects of forest fragmentation on species richness and composition of ground beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae and Brachinidae) in urban landscapes (2008, background): “As “stepping stone” habitats (Samways 2005) that connect hilly forests and riverbanks, urban forests would play a role in maintaining landscape heterogeneity and connectivity of habitats for other groups of arthropods, as well as ground beetles.”
• The seven impediments in invertebrate conservation and how to overcome them (2011, background): “Initiatives as simple as using common names for species may radically change the public perception regarding invertebrates (New, 2008, 2010; Samways, 2005).”
• Predicting insect pest status under climate change scenarios: combining experimental data and population dynamics modelling (2009, background): “…if global temperatures increase, the species will shift their geographical ranges closer to the poles or to higher elevations, and increase their population size (Cammell and Knight 1992; Jenkinson et al. 1996; Woiwod 1997; Sutherst 2000; Harrington et al. 2001; Bale et al. 2002; Samways 2005).”
