Saproxylic Beetle Biodiversity in Golf Course Habitats
Crop, Forage & Turfgrass Management, 2016Saproxylic beetles are a diverse group of insects that use deadwood as food or habitat at some stage of their life. While a few species of saproxylic beetles are considered to be pests, the majority of species perform important ecological roles such as decomposition, nutrient recycling, pollination in the mobile adult form, or act as food sources for ...

Conservation Genetics of Saproxylic Beetles
2017Saproxylic beetles feed on decayed dead wood, representing some of the most ecologically important fauna in mature forests dominated by veteran trees, though this habitat is a shadow of its former self in Britain and Europe; confined to a handful of unconnected sites it remains nationally important for the diverse community assemblage it supports ...

This thesis gives an overview on the diversity of some beetle species in different Mediterranean habitats as well as on the influence of forest management on insect diversity. Primarily, this work involved fundamental research, because very little research had previously been conducted under biodiversity aspects on either ground beetles or saproxylic ...

Explaining the saproxylic beetle diversity of a protected Mediterranean area
Biodiversity and Conservation, 2013Saproxylic beetle diversity is high at the Cabañeros National Park (central Spain), where woodland habitats exhibit remarkable heterogeneity. Our aim was to explain the diversity of saproxylic beetles, focusing on species turnover among mature woodland types.

Mediterranean oak forests of the Iberian Peninsula host a great diversity of saproxylic beetles. For centuries, humans have carried out traditional management practices in this area, at both habitat and tree level, causing changes in forest structure.

Restoration of Young Forests in Eastern Finland: Benefits for Saproxylic Beetles (Coleoptera)
Restoration Ecology, 2013AbstractEffective fire suppression in combination with intensive forestry has caused a large number of dead wood‐dependent (saproxylic) species to become threatened in Fennoscandia. In order to return the fire disturbance dynamics and to increase the amount of dead wood, restoration actions are urgently needed. We studied the effects of restoring young

Non-target catches of saproxylic beetles during bark-beetle mass-trapping
2019The stenographer bark beetle Ips sexdentatus Borner has been causing significant damage to the coastal pine stands of Tuscany. Here, after some isolated outbreaks in 2013, its population density dramatically increased exploiting the huge availability of pines weakened by other factors.

Contributions to the ecology of hollow dependent saproxylic beetles
2015The thesis consists of two studies contributing to knowledge about the ecology of two model saproxylic species dependent on tree hollows. It includes, firstly, an analysis of the habitat requirements of the violet click beetle, Limoniscus violaceus, and secondly, an analysis of the association of several saproxylic beetles with the presence of the ...
