Artificial Pond Habitats Placed in an Australian Berry Farm Support Invertebrate Diversity Including Pollinating Flies. [PDF]
This study investigated whether small, artificial ponds deployed within a commercial farm can function as microhabitats supporting diverse invertebrate communities. We recorded 40 invertebrate taxa from nine orders utilising the ponds, including honey bees, lady beetles and spiders, as well as three species of eristaline hoverflies.
