Determinants of lepidopteran community composition and species diversity in eastern deciduous forests: roles of season, eco‐region and patch size (2003, background): “For example, Daily and Ehrlich (1996) and Ricketts et al. (2001) offered evidence that many lepidopteran species are capable of simultaneous persistence in both agricultural matrices and woodland fragments.”
Attraction to light - from how far do moths (Lepidoptera) return to weak artificial sources of light? (2012, background): “…experiments there is still uncertainty about the effective radius of attraction of light traps when used to study natural moth communities (Ricketts et al., 2001; Hawes et al., 2009) and usually the few results for single-species are generalized to the community level without supporting…”
How much and at what scale? Multiscale analyses as decision support for conservation of saproxylic oak beetles (2012, methodology): “Several studies have used a few discrete scales to describe species–habitat relationships (Ricketts et al., 2001; Bergman et al., 2004, 2008; Rolstad et al., 2004; Franc et al., 2007) while a multi-scale approach using numerous scales has been used in a few recent studies (Thompson and McGarigal, 20”
Abundance and Species Richness of Nocturnal Insects on Organic and Conventional Farms: Effects of Agricultural Intensification on Bat Foraging (2004, background): “The concept of landscapes as complex mosaics of habitats varying in quality with respect to different groups of organisms has been the subject of a number of recent studies (Wiens 1995; Gascon et al. 1999; Ricketts et al. 2001).”
A Multiscale Landscape Approach to Predicting Bird and Moth Rarity Hotspots in a Threatened Pitch Pine–Scrub Oak Community (2004, background): “Because many species of moths are often found in areas lacking their host plants, however, landscape characteristics may play an important role in influencing the distributions of some species (Ricketts et al. 2001; Ricketts et al. 2002).”
A multi-scale analysis of species-environment relationships : breeding birds in a pitch pine-scrub oak (Pinus rigida-Quercus ilicifolia) community (2003, background): “Although light traps have a range of influence of approximately 3–200 m depending on moon phase, weather conditions, and trap location and efficiency (Baker, 1985; Young, 1997; Ricketts et al., 2001), we considered this sampling technique adequate for relating species distributions to environmental ”
Effects of Local Habitat Characteristics and Landscape Context on Grassland Butterfly Diversity (2003, background): “Several published studies reveal striking ecological patterns among remnants that differ in their surroundings (e.g., Åberg et al. 1995; Sisk et al. 1997; Ricketts et al. 2001).”
Tropical Forest Fragments Enhance Pollinator Activity in Nearby Coffee Crops (2004, background): “Although these declines in diversity and abundance with distance from forest might be intuitive and expected from theory (MacArthur & Wilson 1967; Hanski 1998), the reported scales of decline differ widely among taxa (Ricketts et al. 2001; Perfecto & Vandermeer 2002; Luck & Daily 2003).”
Dung Beetle and Terrestrial Mammal Diversity in Forests, Indigenous Agroforestry Systems and Plantain Monocultures in Talamanca, Costa Rica (2006, background): “Petit 2003), bats (Estrada and Coates-Estrada 2001), and moths (Ricketts et al. 2001) – especially if these landscapes retain diverse and structurally complex vegetation – and strengthens the evidence and rationale for including agricultural landscapes in both local and regional conservation efforts”
Effects of Cultivation and Proximity to Natural Habitat on Ground-nesting Native Bees in California Sunflower Fields (2006, background): “However, agricultural areas may also act as refuges (Becker et al., 1991; Ricketts et al., 2001; Soto-Pinto et al., 2001) and maintain biodiversity for some taxa (Mander et al., 1999; Noy and Kaplan, 2002; Luck and Daily, 2003).”
Conservation of biodiversity in coffee agroecosystems: a tri-taxa comparison in southern Mexico (2003, background): “ments has also been demonstrated for moths species richness in Costa Rica, where this variable was shown to be more important than habitat (Ricketts et al. 2001).”
Human Natures, Nature Conservation, and Environmental Ethics (2002, result): “…with less-known groups have stopped trying to deal only with named species, but in their studies simply sort their material to morphospecies (Beattie and Oliver 1994), which prove fully adequate to support important conclusions (Daily and Ehrlich 1996b, Hughes et al. 2000, Ricketts et al. 2001).”
Biodiversity consequences of land-use change and forest disturbance in the Amazon:a multi-scale assessment using ant communities (2016, result): “These findings are consistent with previous studies of the biodiversity impacts of intensive land use (Ricketts et al. 2001, Goehring et al. 2002, Chan and Daily 2008), and reinforce the negative impact of deforestation on ant diversity (Yates and Andrew 2011, Kuate et al.”
Interacting effects of landscape context and habitat quality on flower visiting insects in agricultural landscapes (2006, methodology): “The area of semi-natural habitats and the length of linear landscape features was determined at several spatial scales using an approach similar to Ricketts et al. (2001) and Steffan-Dewenter et al.”
How does landscape context contribute to effects of habitat fragmentation on diversity and population density of butterflies? (2003, background): “Landscape analyses have found negative effects for species richness with increasing habitat isolation (Wettstein & Schmid, 1999; Ricketts et al., 2001) and variable effects with landscape context, as different species may respond at different spatial scales (e.”
