- Moving beyond the guild concept: developing a practical functional trait framework for terrestrial beetles (2015, background): “Ecomorphological studies have investigated the relationships of morphological variables with habitat preference (Weiser & Kaspari, 2006; Talarico et al., 2007, 2011; Barton et al., 2011), diet and guild (Barton et al., 2011; Inward et al., 2011), invasive species (Laparie et al., 2010) and…”
- Morphological patterns and community organization in leaf-litter ant assemblages (2010, methodology): “…ants can strengthen inferences about the relationship between morphology and ecology for highly diverse terrestrial invertebrate communities (Kaspari and Weiser 1999, Nipperess and Beattie 2004, Ferster et al. 2006, Powell and Franks 2006, Weiser and Kaspari 2006, Pie and Traniello 2007).”
- Assembly rules of ground‐foraging ant assemblages are contingent on disturbance, habitat and spatial scale (2007, background): “Weber’s length is the distance from the anterodorsal margin of the pronotum to the posteroventral margin of the propodeum, and it is correlated with other morphological characteristics of ants (Nipperess & Beattie, 2004; Weiser & Kaspari, 2006).”
- Ants as indicators of environmental change and ecosystem processes (2017, background): “For example, the overall body size of epigaeic ant assemblages is linked to habitat complexity and trophic level (Gibb and Parr, 2013), where larger ants forage at the surface rather than in the litter (Donoso and Ramón, 2009; Weiser and Kaspari, 2006).”
