Diversity and distribution of bamboo-feeding true bugs in China. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThere are 36 genera with 69 species bamboo‐feeding true bugs in China. Their spacial diversity pattern showed preference in South China, with higher diversity areas located in the tropics and its surrounding areas. Abstract The Bambusoideae subfamily, originating in the late Cretaceous, has evolved to include over 1500 species globally.

Wildlife Biology, Volume 20, Issue 4, Page 253-258, August 2014., 2014 The wide‐spread encroachment of canopy‐forming shrubs into northern and alpine tundra communities is likely to alter many plant—animal interactions, with direct and indirect impacts on herbivore populations. Specifically, shrub encroachment may impact habitat quality for herbivores by changing predation risk as a result of reduced visibility.

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 6, Page 1120-1135, November 2025.Written records associated with museum collections are often underutilised. We use two new macro‐moth collections donated to the University Museum of Zoology (Cambridge) to investigate long‐term change in the United Kingdom. The new collection contained over 32,000 specimens and had an unusually high proportion of larvae/pupae compared to the main ...
