Synthesis of Pollinator‐Friendly Management in European Protected Areas
Effectiveness of pollinator‐friendly management in European protected areas. Abstract Pollinators are important to humans and nature due to their role in ecosystem functioning and services. Research on the effects of pollinator management in protected areas is insufficient compared with that on farmlands and urban areas, potentially hindering ...

Overwintering of Columbia spotted frogs in northeastern Oregon
We studied behavior and locations of overwintering Columbia spotted frogs in northeastern Oregon. We monitored 66 radio-tagged frogs as they moved to overwintering sites during 1997-2000.

Abstract Global farmland biodiversity is declining rapidly, threatening both natural ecosystems and agricultural production. Although agri‐environmental schemes incentivize farmers to adopt environmentally friendly measures, the spatial mismatch between their local implementation and the landscape‐scale habitat requirements of farmland species has been

Adaptive capacity of alpine fauna in Australia
Assessment of adaptive capacity can provide insights into the mechanisms behind the vulnerability of some of Australia's most threatened species to climate change, such as the endangered mountain pygmy possum (Burramys parvus). Our results highlight diversity in the adaptive capacity of Australia's alpine animals and suggest that climate change will ...

Parks Canada's Climate‐Smart Conservation Planning Workbook
The Climate‐Smart Conservation Planning Workbook (Supporting Information S1), initially drafted by Parks Canada in 2020, offers a structured, evidence‐based approach to integrating climate change considerations into natural resource management. It involves a four‐step process: identifying forward‐looking conservation goals, assessing climate threats ...

The investigations evaluated the performance of the native parasitoid Exorista larvarum (L.) on last instar Cydalima perspectalis (Walker) larvae, using the factitious host Galleria mellonella (L.) as a control. Laboratory bioassays were conducted using no‐choice and choice (1:1 and 5:5) experimental designs.

Actia interrupta is an important larval tachinid parasitoid during low‐density populations of the eastern spruce budworm. In the late 1980s during the outbreak collapse, Meteorus trachynotus was initially the most important species, but was replaced by A. interrupta. Host patch size and density had no impact on the parasitism rates by A.

We describe methods for collecting and rearing the tachinid parasitoid Istocheta aldrichi from parasitized Japanese beetle adults. Hosts can be collected by hand and reared in the laboratory, or by using modified trap containers with added plant material and substrate to provide suitable conditions for I.
