The value of regeneration for insect fauna associated with leaf litter in the Brazilian savanna: A comparative study of biomass and trophic structure

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, Volume 188, Issue 3, Page 875-888, May 2026.
This study demonstrates the ecological value of natural regeneration in the Brazilian Cerrado by analysing the biomass, richness and trophic structure of leaf litter insects across pasture (P), regenerating (R) and native (N) areas. We found that R areas supported insect communities more similar to N habitats than to Ps, with higher richness, greater ...

Fogging and Flight Interception Traps—The Evaluation of Two Methods to Collect Canopy Arthropods

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The forest canopy is a crucial habitat for a wide variety of species. However, it remains difficult to assess due to significant methodological challenges and uncertainties. Flight intercept traps (FITs) and insecticidal knockdown (FOGGING) are among the most widely used techniques for sampling canopy arthropods, yet systematic comparisons of ...
