Does behaviour matter? The role and feasibility of research into arthropod behavioural syndromes to inform invertebrate translocation efforts

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 5, Page 869-879, September 2025.
Animal personality plays a key role in translocation success in both wild‐to‐wild and captive‐to‐wild translocations, with important implications for the success of conservation projects. However, the majority of studies so far have explored the link between personality and translocation success in vertebrate translocations, and there has been less ...

Estimating Required Sample Sizes for Gut Content Metabarcoding Studies of Dietary Diversity in Spiders

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 7, Page 1034-1039, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Spiders are dominant predators in terrestrial ecosystems, regulating invertebrate biomass, diversity and abundance through predation. However, analysing predation patterns in the field is challenging, especially as spiders are extra‐intestinal liquid feeders and often active at night.
