Effect of land use change on Melolonthidae (Coleoptera: Scarabaeoidea) beetle communities in the deforestation arc of the Brazilian Amazon

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Habitat transformation in Amazon due to agriculture expansion impairs Melolonthidae diversity. Assemblage response towards habitat transformation are group‐dependent. Although highly disturbed, Amazon arc of deforestation region dwells sensitive insect assemblages. Abstract Although the Amazon provides crucial goods and ecosystem services for humanity,

Forest type influence on Heliconia‐dipteran interaction networks

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Responses to forest type depended on the developmental stage of dipterans. Bract traits and forest type influenced larval abundance, but forest type had no impact on adult alpha and beta diversity. Heliconia‐dipteran interaction networks showed a nested pattern for both forest types.

Seasonal dynamics in terrestrial insect communities after the impact of the Brumadinho tailings dam disaster

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Despite severe habitat loss, insect species richness, seasonal fluctuations in richness and temporal β‐diversity did not differ significantly among forests adjacent to the mudflow and reference sites. We found higher wet‐season species richness for ants, bees, butterflies and dung beetles, while termites showed no seasonal change; β‐diversity was ...

Estimating wild bee population size with validated distance sampling

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Distance Sampling is a promising method to estimate population size but has never been validated on insects. We validated it on a honey bee population of known size. We applied Distance Sampling to three insular pollinators and found that estimates are consistent across days, match species phenology and reflect the expected influence of weather ...
