Grassland restoration and conservation is necessary to retain ecosystem services and biodiversity. Insects are ecologically important yet often not the focus of restoration. Beetles in the family Carabidae (carabids) are frequently studied after restoration, but the effects of grassland restoration on beetles in the family Scarabaeidae (scarabs) have ...

ABSTRACT Frequent fire in temperate native grasslands in south‐east Australia has maintained high plant diversity. The timing of fire implemented by fire agencies over the last several decades has been in summer and autumn. This coincides with the dormant season for many grassland plants. Recent trends in agency burning, partly driven by earlier curing

Evaluating Satellite Monitoring of Vegetation Health With Fauna Habitat Managers in Mind
ABSTRACT In Australia, pastoralists, not‐for‐profit, and government organisations are managing stands of open woodland to conserve threatened species' habitats. These land areas are usually larger than a cropping field but smaller than many National Parks in Australia.

Leaf Shedding During Drought Reduces Hydraulic Stress in Trees
Abstract Leaf area has long been a proxy for ecosystem function. However, it can be highly variable even in the same forest types across space and time due to variations in local ecohydrology and climatic extremes such as droughts and heatwaves. Leaf shedding in response to drought has been documented at site‐scales, theoretically to avoid hydraulic ...

ABSTRACT Pollination is a key ecosystem service, yet most studies focus on diurnal interactions, often overlooking nocturnal pollinators such as hawkmoths and settling moths. In arid environments, nocturnal pollination plays a crucial role in maintaining native plant species of high biocultural value, as seen in the Caatinga dry forest.
