The development of insect diversity and ecosystem complexity on green roofs: A review
A classification system of different roof types is presented to improve consistency in green roof research. Landscape and green roof characteristics influence ecosystem development, but can be further explained by ecological concepts, like neutral and niche theory.

Characters of generic level in wing venation of Dolichopodidae (Diptera) [PDF]
The wings of 12 genera of Dolichopodidae (Diptera) have been investigated for revelation of quantitative characters. 15 sections of veins were measured, and 13 coefficients of ratios were obtained.

Bryo‐zoophily: a new look at the ecology of moss and animal interactions
ABSTRACT Interactions between plants and animals often play a major role in the ecology of both partners. While such interactions are well studied in vascular plants such as angiosperms and gymnosperms, they are less well understood in bryophytes. However, an extensive search of the scientific literature reveals several cases of known and suspected ...

These results show that introducing multiple drainage periods in rice fields (i.e. AWD) indirectly hampers terrestrial spider reproduction through limiting the emergence of potential preys from the aquatic to terrestrial boundaries. MSD resulted in a more conciliatory strategy as it largely reduces methane emissions and does not affect predator–prey ...

Lords of the flies: dipteran migrants are diverse, abundant and ecologically important
ABSTRACT Insect migrants are hugely abundant, with recent studies identifying the megadiverse order Diptera as the major component of many migratory assemblages. Despite this, their migratory behaviour has been widely overlooked in favour of more ‘charismatic’ migrant insects such as butterflies, dragonflies, and moths.

Winter mortality of the bark beetle Ips typographus in standing trees and in the ground
Abstract Ips typographus is the most important tree‐killing bark beetle in Europe. In the north, it overwinters either in the bark of its host tree or in the ground, while in central Europe, overwintering in trees is most common. Few studies have estimated winter mortality of I. typographus in northern Europe. Mortality of I.
