• Understanding the biodiversity consequences of habitat change: the value of secondary and plantation forests for neotropical dung beetles (2007, background): “Large body size is one of the most commonly cited traits promoting extinction over ecological time scales, and has been reported in both vertebrates and invertebrates, including dung beetle studies on the effects of fragmentation (Klein 1989; Larsen, Williams & Kremen 2005) and forest clearance ( Sc”
• Habitat fragmentation alters the structure of dung beetle communities in the Atlantic Forest (2011, background): “A vast number of studies have also documented the influence of vegetation type on dung beetle communities (Estrada et al., 1998; Davis et al., 2001; Andresen, 2005; Davis and Philips, 2005; Scheffler, 2005; Gardner et al., 2008).”
