Pervasive effects of dispersal limitation on within- and among-community species richness in agricultural landscapes (2009, background): “This indicates that confounding results might appear when important species traits are not taken into account (Henle et al., 2004; Driscoll & Weir, 2005 ).”
Effects of vegetation structure and floristic diversity on detritivore, herbivore and predatory invertebrates within calcareous grasslands (2009, background): “This reflects a reduced ability to re-colonise individual habitats following local extinctions as a result of environmental perturbations (De Vries et al. 1996; Driscoll and Weir 2005).”
Where have all the beetles gone? Long‐term study reveals carabid species decline in a nature reserve in Northern Germany (2019, result): “However, to entomologists this decline was not surprising news since early compilations (Didham et al., 1996), older studies (e.g. Driscoll & Weir, 2005; Haskell, 2000) or analyses of red lists and large-scaled inventories (e.g. Desender et al., 2010; Schmidt et al., 2016) had already shown an…”
Functional traits as indicators of biodiversity response to land use changes across ecosystems and organisms (2010, background): “Historically, most ground beetle studies have focused on taxonomic diversity, but a few studies have considered the response of ground beetle traits to land-use or landscape heterogeneity (Driscoll and Weir 2005; Pizzolotto 2009).”
Effects of fragmentation on pollinator abundance and fruit set of an abundant understory palm in a Mexican tropical forest (2008, background): “In contrast, other groups of organisms, such as insects, have received comparatively less attention (see Didham et al., 1996; Driscoll and Weir, 2005; Grimbacher et al., 2006; Vasconselos et al., . ent of Biological Sciences, Stanford, CA 94305, USA.”
Functional identity and diversity of animals predict ecosystem functioning better than species-based indices (2015, background): “To improve predictions and mechanistic understanding of BEF, it has been increasingly accepted that instead of focusing on the taxonomic identity of organisms, the diversity of functional traits of species within a community should be studied [2–5].”
Current use of and future needs for soil invertebrate functional traits in community ecology (2014, background): “For instance, it has 332 been shown that ground beetle wing development varies with habitat type in different contexts 333 (Ribera et al. 2001; Driscoll & Weir 2005; Gobbi & Fontaneto 2008; Barbaro et al. 2009; 334 Gobbi, Caccianiga, Cerabolini, Bernardi, Luzzaro et al. 2010; Vandewalle et al.…”
