Subject:
Carabidae; Carpobrotus; Scarabaeidae; Staphylinidae; Tenebrionidae; biodiversity; chamaephytes; detritivores; ecological restoration; grasslands; invasive species; shrublands
Abstract:
... Invasive plant species, such as Carpobrotus species, threaten the biodiversity of Mediterranean islands. Ecological restoration can include the control of invasive plants, but the effect of Carpobrotus removal on arthropods is understudied. Here, we evaluated the influence of Carpobrotus removal on beetle assemblages, on a Mediterranean island. Between November 2011 and February 2012, we manually ...

Restoration ecology 2019 v.27 no.1 pp. 158-167
ISSN:

Subject:
carbon nitrogen ratio; detritivores; ecosystems; functional diversity; natural regeneration; soil; species richness; trees; tropical forests; vegetation structure; Brazil
Abstract:
... Restoration projects may have broad and complex ecological goals that require distinct and integrative measures for evaluating restoration development and success. However, most studies usually evaluate structural and species composition parameters, with less emphasis on ecological processes and functioning. The main objective of this study is to use an integrated approach that considers structura ...

3. Current and Potential Roles of Soil Macroinvertebrates (Earthworms, Millipedes, and Isopods) in Ecological Restoration

Author:
Snyder, Bruce A.; Hendrix, Paul F.

Restoration ecology 2008 v.16 no.4 pp. 629-636
ISSN:

Subject:
Diplopoda; Isopoda; detritivores; earthworms; ecological restoration; ecosystems; macroinvertebrates; outreach; soil
Abstract:
... Soil macroinvertebrates have a considerable impact on soil functions important to the restoration process, such as decomposition; yet, soil organisms have received relatively little attention in restoration ecology in terms of their applicability as agents of restoration. Here, we review how large obligate detritivores (earthworms, millipedes, and isopods) have been used to accomplish restoration ...
