Moth traps shine a light on nocturnal parasitoid wasps: Snapshot assessment of UK diversity and distributions

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Biological datasets are biased towards well‐known, charismatic taxa, meaning that our understanding of biodiversity is incomplete. Parasitoid wasps (Hymenoptera) are an ecologically important, yet often overlooked group of insects. We show that 5 months of sampling for parasitoid ‘bycatch’ at moth light traps operated by citizen scientists provides ...

Annotating GBIF: some thoughts

, 2014
Given that it's the start of a new year, and I have a short window before teaching kicks off in earnest (and I have to revise my phyloinformatics course) I'm playing with a few GBIF-related ideas. One topic which comes up a lot is annotating and correcting errors. There has been some work in this area [1][2] bit it strikes me as somewhat complicated.

Linking EU habitat and species protection through favourable reference areas: Evidence from threatened saproxylic beetles

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Threatened saproxylic beetles occurred significantly more often within EU forest habitats and in landscapes with high habitat density. Achieving Favourable Reference Areas substantially increased habitat availability and improved the projected conservation status of threatened saproxylic beetles.

Roadside pollinator populations and the negative impact of intensive roadside vegetation maintenance

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Less intensively managed roadsides had higher numbers of flower flies and bees; bee diversity was also higher in those roadsides. Community composition was similar across both management types, indicating that roadsides support a fairly homogeneous pollinator community, regardless of management.

Catalytic effect of open data platforms: the case of the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF)

In recent years, the proliferation of open data initiatives has increased the use of large-scale data platforms in scientific research. While these platforms are anticipated to transform research practices, the mechanisms through which open data ...

Genetic erosion and projected habitat loss in the protected Alpine moth Actias isabellae galliaegloria (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae) Erosion génétique et perte d'habitat chez le papillon alpin protégé Actias isabellae galliaegloria (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae)

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Genomic analyses of Actias isabellae galliaegloria reveal low genetic diversity and inbreeding, indicating a historical bottleneck and reduced adaptive potential. Climate change is projected to drastically reduce suitable habitat by 2050, driven by rising temperatures and declines in Scots pine, its primary host.
