Food and habitats requirements of the Eurasian Scops Owl (Otus scops) in Switzerland revealed by very high‐resolution multi‐scale models

Ibis, Volume 164, Issue 1, Page 240-254, January 2022., 2022
In Europe, agricultural practices have progressively evolved towards high productivity leading either to the intensification of productive and accessible areas or to the abandonment of less profitable sites. Both processes have led to the degradation of semi‐natural habitats like extensive grasslands, threatening species such as the Eurasian Scops Owl ...

Combining DNA metabarcoding and ecological networks to inform conservation biocontrol by small vertebrate predators

Ecological Applications, Volume 31, Issue 8, December 2021., 2021
Abstract In multifunctional landscapes, diverse communities of flying vertebrate predators provide vital services of insect pest control. In such landscapes, conservation biocontrol should benefit service‐providing species to enhance the flow, stability and resilience of pest control services supporting the production of food and fiber.

Rediscovery and redescription of the sharpshooter Kogigonalia incarnata (Germar, 1821), comb. n. (Hemiptera, Cicadellidae, Cicadellini) from the Atlantic Forest of Brazil, with a key to the species of the genus

ZooKeys, 2015
The Brazilian sharpshooter Tettigonia incarnata Germar, 1821 was treated as incertae sedis in the most comprehensive and recent monograph of the New World Cicadellini. We have been able to identify male and female specimens of T.

The cercal organ may provide singing tettigoniids a backup sensory system for the detection of eavesdropping bats.

PLoS ONE, 2010
Conspicuous signals, such as the calling songs of tettigoniids, are intended to attract mates but may also unintentionally attract predators. Among them bats that listen to prey-generated sounds constitute a predation pressure for many acoustically ...
