- Title
HABITAT FRAGMENTATION AND ARTHROPOD COMMUNITY CHANGE: CARRION BEETLES, PHORETIC MITES, AND FLIES.
- Authors
Gibbs, James P.; Stanton, Edward J.
- Abstract
The article presents a study on the habitat relationships between carrion beetles, phoretic mites and muscoid flies in an urban-rural forest fragmentation in central New York State. The abundance of carrion beetle communities are noted to reduce by one-third whereas the abundance of flies are greater in forest fragments compared to contiguous forest. Carrion beetles are found to be affected by forest fragmentation.
