Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Spider dietary breadth and overlap increased with imperviousness, suggesting that prey and spiders are concentrating in vacant lots in these landscapes. Higher vegetation biomass, which results from reduced mowing frequency, was associated with increased dietary breadth and shared prey between spiders.

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.The height at which epiphytic bromeliads are found affects the invertebrate community composition within them. The size of epiphytic bromeliads is positively correlated with species richness of both aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates. Whether bromeliads were found in primary or secondary forest did not have a significant effect on the community of ...

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.We experimentally manipulated top‐down (predator exclusion) and bottom‐up (fertilisation) forces in a temperate forest understory to test effects on arthropod densities, body sizes and herbivory. Predator exclusion had no detectable effect on arthropod density, herbivory damage or body size, whereas fertilisation increased herbivory damage and ...
