Herbivory on the pedunculate oak along an urbanization gradient in Europe : Eff...
Valdés‐Correcher, Elena; Popova, Anna; Galmán, Andrea; Prinzing, Andreas; Selikhovkin, Andrey V.; Howe, Andy G.; Mrazova, Anna; Dulaurent, Anne‐MaïmitiUrbanization is an important driver of the diversity and abundance of tree-associated insect herbivores, but its consequences for insect herbivory are poorly understood. A likely source of variability among studies is the insufficient consideration of intraurban variability in forest cover. With the help of citizen scientists, we investigated the independent and interactive effects of local canopy cover and per...

Search for top‐down and bottom‐up drivers of latitudinal trends in insect herbi...
Valdés‐Correcher, Elena; Moreira, Xoaquín; Augusto, Laurent; Barbaro, Luc; Bouget, Christophe; Bouriaud, Olivier; Branco, Manuela; Centenaro, GiadaAIM: The strength of species interactions is traditionally expected to increase toward the Equator. However, recent studies have reported opposite or inconsistent latitudinal trends in the bottom-up (plant quality) and top-down (natural enemies) forces driving herbivory. In addition, these forces have rarely been studied together thus limiting previous attempts to understand the effect of large-scale climatic g...
