The influence of forest regrowth, original canopy cover and tree size on saproxylic beetles associated with old oaks. (2000, background): “In small stands, the number of old trees needs to increase if the beetle fauna is to be sustained in the long run, as stand size (Ranius, 2000) and historical continuity (Nilsson and Baranowski, 1997) have been found to be important factors for the occurrence of some rare saproxylic beetles associat”
A comparison of three methods to survey saproxylic beetles in hollow oaks (2002, methodology): “From a wood mould sample beetles could be extracted by a lamp (Dajoz 1980; Nilsson and Baranowski 1997) or collected by searching through the material when it is spread out on a sheet (Ranius 2000).”
Ecology of Species Living on Dead Wood - Lessons for Dead Wood Management (2005, background): “A set of habitat patches may maintain viable populations even if the survival in individual patches, e.g. individual decaying tree trunks, is limited in time (Ranius 2000).”
Osmoderma eremita (Coleoptera, Scarabaeidae, Cetoniinae) in Europe (2005, background): “This has been shown in studies in pasture oaklands in Sweden (Ranius, 2000; Hedin & Mellbrand, 2003).”
How much and at what scale? Multiscale analyses as decision support for conservation of saproxylic oak beetles (2012, background): “eremita also support that long-distance dispersal is very rare, many single suitable trees were unoccupied only a few hundred metres from occupied oaks (Ranius, 2000).”
Measuring the dispersal of saproxylic insects: a key characteristic for their conservation (2006, unknown): “Ranius (2000) found that the occupancy of O. eremita per tree was positively correlated with stand size (Fig.”
Recent evidence for the climate change threat to Lepidoptera and other insects (2011, background): “It also has extremely limited dispersal (Hedin et al. 2008), so that persistence within woodlands is dependent on aggregations of old growth oak trees, and in fragmented habitats the species rarely moves between woodlands (Ranius 2000, 2007).”
Osmoderma eremita as an indicator of species richness of beetles in tree hollows (2002, background): “eremita has been found to be correlated with mean tree diameter and stand size (Ranius 2000).”
Restricted dispersal in a flying beetle assessed by telemetry (2008, background): “The population structure of O. eremita, within stands of hollow trees (with distances of up to 250 m between individual trees), may be described as a metapopulation (Ranius 2000; Ranius and Hedin 2001).”
