Landscape impacts on pollinator communities in temperate systems: evidence and knowledge gaps (2017, unknown): “Forrest et al. (2015) found that bee assemblages in Californian farmland were functionally depauperate compared to those in nearby natural communities with farmland communities dominated by social, polylectic ground-nesting species with long ﬂight seasons and natural areas dominated by bees that…”
Relationships among ecological traits of wild bee communities along gradients of habitat amount and fragmentation (2017, methodology): “For bees in southwest France, we sourced trait information from the ALARM project database (Settele et al. 2005), and from Michener (2000), Gathmann and Tscharntke (2002), Bommarco et al. (2010), Fortel et al. (2014) and Forrest et al. (2015).”
Functional richness: Overview of indices and underlying concepts (2018, background): “However, this recommendation is difficult to apply in the real world because a large number of studies use categorical variables for large numbers of taxa (e.g. Flynn et al. 2009, Carboni et al. 2013, Forrest et al. 2015, Loiseau et al. 2016).”
