DOI: 10.1007/s10841-020-00247-x
Abstract: Natural grasslands are being destroyed at an alarming pace, but land managers are actively working to restore these habitats. Many of these efforts focus on restoring plant diversity but often do not consider responses of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.gecco.2021.e01691
Abstract: Abstract The conservation of native insect pollinators is hampered by a lack of information about environmental factors influencing pollinator communities. We investigated how insect pollinator communities, composed of bees (Hymenoptera), butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera), and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/rec.70002
Abstract: Creation of new flowering plant habitat is a central approach used to conserve pollinators in degraded landscapes, but the impacts of pollinator‐targeted restoration on forage availability and pollinator communities are surprisingly understudied. We evaluated the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pcbi.1011762
Abstract: Plant and pollinator communities are vital for transnational food chains. Like many natural systems, they are affected by global change: rapidly deteriorating conditions threaten their numbers. Previous theoretical studies identified the potential for community-wide collapse… read more here.
