In urban habitats, plant resources for herbivorous insects and their parasitoids are spatially subdivided and embedded in a matrix of built environment. These conditions could affect insect colonization and persistence, leading to altered trophi[...]

While the collection of fish for the aquarium pet trade has been flagged as a major threat to wild populations, this link is tenuous for the unregulated wild collection of endemic species because of the lack of quantitative data. In this paper, [...]
