Foraging preferences of bumble bee castes are weakly related to plant species cover on two arable agri-environment habitat types

Journal of Pollination Ecology, 2023
Arable field margins provide important floral resources for insect foragers. This study assessed the significance of cultivated margins and floristically enhanced margins, both English agri-environment scheme (AES) options, to foraging bumble bees ...

Assessing the prevalence of protected species consumption by rural communities in Makira Natural Park, Madagascar, through the unmatched count technique

Conservation Science and Practice, 2021
In tropical Africa, wild meat consumption by rural communities who live in or near protected areas can be a major challenge in the conservation of threatened species. Lemurs and the fossa are among the species consumed in Makira Natural Park, Madagascar.

Updated description of Diospyros dussaudii Lecomte (Ebenaceae), with lectotypification and notes on its distribution [PDF]

PhytoKeys, 2021
Diospyros dussaudii is a poorly known species and previous descriptions lacked details about its female flowers and fruits. The species had not been recorded since type collections were made in 1913. As a result of our Diospyros research in Thailand, new

Crop and landscape factors affecting variation in composition and behaviour of the pollinator community in field bean crops

Journal of Pollination Ecology, 2023
The global decline in pollinators is likely to negatively affect the yield of insect pollinated crops such as field beans (Vicia faba). To understand the impact of such declines it is important to investigate how the abundance, composition and behaviour ...

Anthropogenic modification of forests means only 40% of remaining forests have high ecosystem integrity

Nature Communications, 2020
Mapping and quantifying degree of forest modification is critical to conserve and manage forests. Here the authors propose a new quantitative metric for landscape integrity and apply it to a global forest map, showing that less than half of the world’s ...
