Conservation of saproxylic beetles in a wooded pasture in northern Scania
The area of wooded pasture in Europe has decreased drastically over the last centuries due to abandoned management. Herrevadskloster is a newly formed nature reserve in northern Scania with an unusually long continuity of being an open, grazed woodland containing large old trees. In this study, the reserve was studied to evaluate its potential to further the conservation of the redlisted saprox...
متن کاملAssociation of extinction risk of saproxylic beetles with ecological degradation of forests in Europe.
To reduce future loss of biodiversity and to allocate conservation funds effectively, the major drivers behind large-scale extinction processes must be identified. A promising approach is to link the red-list status of species and specific traits that connect species of functionally important taxa or guilds to resources they rely on. Such traits can be used to detect the influence of anthropoge...
متن کاملThe Conservation of Saproxylic Beetles in Boreal Forest: Importance of Forest Management and Dead Wood Characteristics
Johansson, T. 2006. The conservation of saproxylic beetles in boreal forest: importance of forest management and dead wood characteristics Doctoral dissertation ISSN 1652-6880, ISBN 91-576-7115-X Forest management has altered the age structure, tree species composition and dead wood availability of Swedish boreal forests. As a consequence, many saproxylic (wood living) insect species have decre...
متن کاملLinköping University Post Print Boxes mimicking tree hollows can help conservation of saproxylic beetles
Old hollow trees have declined in Europe and many saproxylic (i.e. wood-dwelling) invertebrates living on them are threatened. The aim of this study was to investigate to what extent artificial habitats can be exploited by saproxylic beetles. To mimic the conditions in tree hollows, we constructed wooden boxes filled with different combinations of substrates like oak saw dust, oak leaves, a dea...
متن کاملMicro and Macro-Habitat Associations in Saproxylic Beetles: Implications for Biodiversity Management
Restoration of habitats is critically important in preventing full realization of the extinction debt owed as a result of anthropogenic habitat destruction. Although much emphasis has been placed on macrohabitats, suitable microhabitats are also vital for the survival of most species. The aim of this large-scale field experiment was to evaluate the relative importance of manipulated microhabita...
