Over a period of 4 years, insects emerged throughout the year from the uncropped area in a winter-wheat-fallow sequence on Rothamsted Farm, southern E...

1. Urbanization gradients influence both landscape and climate and provide opportunity for understanding how plants and pollinators respond to artific...

The ability of Harpalus rufipes (Deg.) to feed on aphids was studied in the laboratory in the UK and compared with evidence of predation on aphids in ...

Successful management of insect crop pests requires an understanding of the cues and spatial scales at which they function to affect rates of attack o...

At Rothamsted in southern England from 1973 to 1977, alate cereal aphids (Sitobion avenae (F.), Metopolophium dirhodum (Wlk.), and in some years S. fr...

Spillover of beneficial organisms from natural habitats to croplands can improve agro-ecosystem services, but wildlife can also negatively influence a...

Farmland is readily divisible into linear habitats such as hedges, and nonlinear habitats such as fields and woodlots. In agricultural landscapes, con...

The spatial heterogeneity of predator populations is an important component of ecological theories pertaining to predator-prey dynamics. Most studies ...
