Forest history, continuity and dynamic naturalness.

2004
Forest history is one of the bases by which biodiversity in woodlands can be explained. In practice, forest history is mainly investigated in relation to research about ancient woodlands, or to particular scientific questions. However, it seems necessary to assess forest history not only for specific occasions but to take it as a base for an evaluation

Natural Enemies of Forest Insects

1986
Herbivorous forest insects are preyed upon by a variety of insectivorous organisms, including birds, mammals, reptiles, spiders, mites, other insects, nematodes, fungi, bacteria, and viruses. These carnivorous organisms can play an important role in maintaining sparse pest populations or in suppressing incipient outbreaks.
