Preliminary Functional Group Patterns of Arthropods in a Maize Field and Adjacent Cultivated Refuge Strip in South Africa

open access: yesAustral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Agricultural intensification is a major driver of global arthropod declines. Habitat management strategies, such as cultivated refuge strips (CRS), can counteract these effects by enhancing biodiversity, promoting conservation biological control and improving agroecosystem resilience.

Benign neglect enhances urban habitat heterogeneity: Responses of vegetation and carabid beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) to the cessation of mowing of park lawns

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2014
In this study, we investigate the changes in both vascular plant and carabid beetle assemblages in response to reducing the intensity of management of park lawns in the city of Helsinki.

Arthropod niche differentiation linked to grazing‐induced sward islets in intensively managed agricultural pasture

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 598-620, May 2026.
In a given number of samples, grassland sward islets contain more species of arthropods than the surrounding sward. When corrected for abundance, there is no difference in species richness, suggesting that the effect of islets might purely be to concentrate arthropods. The community structure differences indicated by non‐metric multidimensional scaling

Bioaccumulation of pesticides in carabid beetles in a vineyard and olive grove under integrated pest management

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology
Intensive use of pesticides is among the main drivers of biodiversity loss, especially of insects. Here, field concentrations of chemical synthetic pesticides were measured in soil and carabid beetles in a vineyard (VP) and olive grove (OP), in two ...

Carabid beetle assemblages associated with urban golf courses in the greater Helsinki area

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2010
Golf is a popular sport, with increasingly large areas of urban and peri-urban land being designated for golf course development. Yet, more than half of the land area of a typical golf course is considered rough and out-of-play areas that can, if managed

Management practices, local habitat features, and landcover associated with carabid and scarab beetle occupancy and abundance in restored Black Belt grasslands

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 4, May 2026.
Grassland restoration and conservation is necessary to retain ecosystem services and biodiversity. Insects are ecologically important yet often not the focus of restoration. Beetles in the family Carabidae (carabids) are frequently studied after restoration, but the effects of grassland restoration on beetles in the family Scarabaeidae (scarabs) have ...

Spatial population structure of the predatory ground beetle Carabus yaconinus (Coleoptera: Carabidae) in the mixed farmland-woodland satoyama landscape of Japan

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2009
To conserve the predators and parasitoids of agricultural pests it is necessary to understand their population structure in a mixed landscape, and to consider the spatial and temporal changes in their distribution and movement of adults and larvae.
