A 4‐year survey of Cremastra appendiculata var. variabilis pollinators was conducted using a commercially available sensor camera throughout the flowering period. Additionally, sensor cameras and interval photography were used simultaneously to compare the number of videos capturing bumblebees.

Management and drivers of change of pollinating insects and pollination services. National Pollinator Strategy: for bees and other pollinators in England, Evidence statements and Summary of Evidence [PDF]
These Evidence Statements provide up-to-date information on what is known (and not known) about the status, values, drivers of change, and responses to management of UK insect pollinators (as was September 2018). This document has been produced to inform

Sustained functional composition of pollinators in restored pastures despite slow functional restoration of plants [PDF]
Habitat restoration is a key measure to counteract negative impacts on biodiversity from habitat loss and fragmentation. To assess success in restoring not only biodiversity, but also functionality of communities, we should take into account the re ...

ABSTRACT Insects are the most diverse and functionally important animals on Earth. In at least some regions, terrestrial populations are declining. Despite this, insects are often overlooked in conservation policy, and it is difficult to assess how anthropogenic threats and conservation actions affect insect populations.

Seasonal complementary in pollinators of soft-fruit crops [PDF]
Understanding the relative contributions of wild and managed pollinators, and the functional contributions made by a diverse pollinator community, is essential to the maintenance of yields in the 75% of our crops that benefit from insect pollination.

Metacommunity theory has expanded our understanding of how spatial dynamics and local interactions influence species communities, but we lack empirical studies specifically in terrestrial habitats testing which archetype is most important. In a replicated design we experimentally enhanced structural between‐patch heterogeneity in homogeneous production

While urbanisation contributes to global biodiversity declines, flower-rich urban habitats may provide beneficial pollinator habitats. We investigated the potential of urban residential areas to contribute to pollinator diversity by analysing wild bee ...

Host preferences of aphidophagous hoverflies from field distribution of their larvae [PDF]
The patterns of occurrences among aphid colonies of the larvae of two species of highly polyphagous predatory hoverflies, Episyrphus balteatus (de Geer) and Syrphus ribesii (L.) (Diptera: Syrphidae), were assessed in three areas (Nottingham, Cardiff (UK)

The stag beetle Lucanus cervus is a European Protected Species and declining dead wood specialist, but long‐term population trends in the United Kingdom remain largely unknown. We used 82,883 citizen science records and historic data from museum records to compare geographic distribution trends, and results suggest a broadly stable distribution over ...
