1.
Goncalves-Souza T, Chase J, Haddad N, Vancine M, Didham R, Melo F, et al.
Nature . 2025 Mar; PMID: 40074894
Habitat fragmentation generally reduces biodiversity at the patch scale (α diversity). However, there is ongoing debate about whether such negative effects can be alleviated at the landscape scale (γ diversity)...

Ewers R, Orme C, Pearse W, Zulkifli N, Yvon-Durocher G, Yusah K, et al.
Nature . 2024 Jul; 631(8022):808-813. PMID: 39020163
Logged and disturbed forests are often viewed as degraded and depauperate environments compared with primary forest. However, they are dynamic ecosystems that provide refugia for large amounts of biodiversity, so...

Lewis M, Didham R, Evans T, Berson J
Sci Total Environ . 2024 Jun; 945:174050. PMID: 38906290
Anthelmintic residues in livestock dung can adversely affect beneficial organisms. Targeted selective treatment (TST) of a reduced proportion of livestock with anthelmintics can slow resistance development in gastrointestinal nematodes by...

Pille Arnold J, Tylianakis J, Murphy M, Cawthray G, Webber B, Didham R
Proc Biol Sci . 2024 Jun; 291(2024):20232771. PMID: 38864334
Land use change alters floral resource availability, thereby contributing to declines in important pollinators. However, the severity of land use impact varies by species, influenced by factors such as dispersal...

Berson J, Edwards P, Ridsdill-Smith T, Taylor C, Anderson D, Andrew N, et al.
Ecology . 2024 May; 105(7):e4328. PMID: 38782017
Since 1968, the Australian Dung Beetle Project has carried out field releases of 43 deliberately introduced dung beetle species for the biological control of livestock dung and dung-breeding pests. Of...

Wong M, Didham R
Nat Commun . 2024 Apr; 15(1):3236. PMID: 38622174
Insects sustain key ecosystem functions, but how their activity varies across the day-night cycle and the underlying drivers are poorly understood. Although entomologists generally expect that more insects are active...

Anderson D, Berson J, Didham R, Simmons L, Evans T
Proc Biol Sci . 2024 Mar; 291(2019):20232885. PMID: 38503337
The ecosystem services provided by dung beetles are well known and valued. Dung beetles bury dung for feeding and breeding, and it is generally thought that the process of burying...

Zheng S, Yu M, Webber B, Didham R
Ecology . 2024 Feb; 105(4):e4260. PMID: 38353290
There is strong trait dependence in species-level responses to environmental change and their cascading effects on ecosystem functioning. However, there is little understanding of whether intraspecific trait variation (ITV) can...

Lymbery S, Webber B, Didham R
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2023 Aug; 120(37):e2217973120. PMID: 37639613
In social animals, success can depend on the outcome of group battles. Theoretical models of warfare predict that group fighting ability is proportional to two key factors: the strength of...

Ren P, Didham R, Murphy M, Zeng D, Si X, Ding P
Nat Ecol Evol . 2023 Jan; 7(3):393-404. PMID: 36717744
Edge effects often exacerbate the negative effects of habitat loss on biodiversity. In forested ecosystems, however, many pollinators actually prefer open sunny conditions created by edge disturbances. We tested the...
