Effects of urbanisation and landscape heterogeneity mediated by feeding guild and body size in a community of coprophilous beetles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Although the impacts of urbanisation on biodiversity are well studied, the precise response of some invertebrate groups remains poorly known. Dung-associated beetles are little studied in an urban context, especially in temperate regions.

Effect of \u3ci\u3eBeauveria Bassiana\u3c/i\u3e on Underground Stages Of the Colorado Potato Beetle, \u3ci\u3eLeptinotarsa Decemlineata\u3c/i\u3e (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Tests were conducted to determine the effect of the fungus Beauveria bassiana (B.b.) on underground of the Colorado potato beetle (CPB), Leptinotarsa decemlineata.

Ground beetle assemblages respond to motorway proximity through changes in functional rather than taxonomic diversity in a grassland ecosystem

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2022
Despite being among the best-studied insect groups in road ecology, assemblage-level effects of major roads on ground beetles have rarely been investigated from the functional perspective.

Ground Beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) Inhabiting Stands of Reed Canary Grass Phalaris Arundinacea on Islands in the Lower Chippewa River, Wisconsin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We used pitfall traps to assess ground beetle diversity (Coleoptera:Carabidae) on two islands in the lower Chippewa River, Eau Claire County, Wisconsin, with rapidly expanding populations of reed canary grass, Phalaris arundinaceae.

Ground-dwelling arthropods as biodiversity indicators in maize agroecosystems of Northern Italy

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Reliable monitoring of arthropod diversity in a given agroecosystem is essential for the conservation of the related ecosystem services, such as biological control.

First Record of \u3ci\u3eHarpalus Ochropus\u3c/i\u3e Kirby (Coleoptera: Carabidae) From Minnesota and the Conterminous United States [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
(excerpt) The epigeal ground beetle Harpalus ochropus Kirby (Coleoptera: Carabidae) has been reported from Alaska and across Canada from British Columbia into Quebec (Bousquet and Larochelle 1993). It is local and rarely collected. Gandhi et al.

Are ground beetles neutral?

open access: yesBasic and Applied Ecology, 2007
Species–abundance distribution; Nestedness; Colonisation Summary The neutral model approach to community ecology is currently intensively discussed but has mainly been tested for its ability to mimic observed patterns like species–abundance or abundance–occupancy distributions.

Herbaceous Filter Strips in Agroecosystems: Implications for Ground Beetle (Coleoptera: Carabidae) Conservation and Invertebrate Weed Seed Predation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A 9.3-ha crop field flanked by two filter strips was selected to: 1) assess carabid beetle activity-density and community composition and 2) assess post-dispersal weed seed predation by invertebrates in these habitats.
