The influence of cutting height on arthropods in farm grassland

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Mowing at a cutting height of 13 cm slightly reduced the immediate negative impact of mowing compared to mowing at a height of 7 cm. Medium‐term effects overrode this benefit: the number of vegetation‐dwelling arthropods remained strongly reduced two and four weeks after mowing, regardless of the cutting height.

Disc Mower Modifications to Reduce Suction Effects Do Not Decrease Insect Losses During Grassland Mowing

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Among other anthropogenic factors, intensive agriculture, including frequent mowing, has largely contributed to the decline of the grassland fauna in Central Europe. Disc mowers, the predominant mowing technology, have long been suspected to cause high arthropod mortality mainly through suction generated by slanted blades.

ABSTRACT The hypothesis of a Gondwanian origin of the family Tingidae (Insecta, Heteroptera) has been promoted and seems to be generally accepted by specialists. However, the area of emergence and diversification of the clade, South American or Australian, is still debated and cannot be solved without integrating Vianaidinae, a subfamily considered as ...
