Complex Ecological Interactions in the Coffee Agroecosystem (2014, background): “…which significantly affect herbivores but are consumed mainly by spiders, especially the web weavers (Ibarra-Núñez 2001), and not extensively by birds, which clearly prefer the larger arthropods (Greenberg et al. 2000, Van Bael et al. 2003, Philpott et al. 2004, Williams-Guillén et al. 2008).”
Environmental-economic benefits and trade-offs on sustainably certified coffee farms (2017, background): “Many authors have 31 presented and promoted the potential of coffee with diverse shade trees to sustain biodiversity of 32 birds, ants, bats and other mammals (e.g. Greenberg et al. 2000, Mas and Dietsch 2004, Estrada et al. 33 2006).”
Biodiversity in tropical agroforests and the ecological role of ants and ant diversity in predatory function (2006, background): “Species may lack a preferred size, type, or species of nesting site ( Leston, 1973; Torres & Snelling, 1997; Roberts et al. , 2000; Armbrecht et al. , 2004 ) or particular species, size, or composition of shade tree necessary for nesting ( Greenberg et al. , 2000 ).”
Ecosystem Services Provided by Birds (2008, background): “Studies in agricultural systems vary from coffee plantations (Greenberg et al. 2000; Philpott et al. 2004) to ephemeral Brassica (broccoli, cauliflower) fields (Hooks et al.”
A Review of Ecosystem Services, Farmer Livelihoods, and Value Chains in Shade Coffee Agroecosystems (2011, unknown): “More generally, birds are important predators of arthropods in shaded coffee plantations (Borkhataria et al. 2006; Greenberg et al. 2000; Ta bl e 5 C ha ra ct er is tic s of c of fe e m an ag em en t s ys te m sa M an ag em en t st yl e T re e co m po si tio n T re e ri ch ne ss (N o. ) C an op…”
Effects of Land‐Use Intensity in Tropical Agroforestry Systems on Coffee Flower‐Visiting and Trap‐Nesting Bees and Wasps (2002, background): “Due to the structural and floristic complexity of the shade trees, such coffee ecosystems may support relatively high biodiversity (Perfecto et al. 1996, 1997; Moguel & Toledo 1999; Greenberg et al. 2000).”
Pest reduction services by birds in shade and sun coffee in Jamaica (2010, background): “These results provide additional evidence that birds can reduce numbers of economically damaging pests such as the coffee berry borer (Kellermann et al., 2008) and add to the body of evidence from Guatemela (Greenberg et al., 2000), Mexico (Philpott et al., 2004), Panama (Van Bael et al., 2008) and ”
The Value of Animal Behavior in Evaluations of Restoration Success (2008, background): “Birds disperse seeds of numerous plant species (e.g., Wunderle 1997), serve as pollinators and decomposers (Sxekercioğlu 2006) and mediate herbivory levels on plants by foraging on insects (e.g., Greenberg et al. 2000).”
Bird functional diversity and ecosystem services in tropical forests, agroforests and agricultural areas (2012, unknown): “This is counterproductive as insectivorous birds can be important for agriculture by removing and controlling insect pests (Greenberg et al. 2000b; Perfecto et al. 2004; Johnson et al. 2010).”
