Jack-of-all-trades paradigm meets long-term data: generalist herbivores are more widespread and locally less abundant

C. Sudta, D. Salcido, M. Forister, T. Walla, S. Villamarin-Cortez, L. A. Dyer

The paper uses a 17-year dataset of caterpillar-plant interactions to show that more specialized caterpillars are locally more abundant than generalists, but generalists are more prevalent at larger scales.

Loss of dominant caterpillar genera in a protected tropical forest

D. M. Salcido, M. L. Forister, H. Garcia, L. A. Dyer

The paper reports a decline in caterpillar diversity and density in a tropical forest over 22 years, linked to climate change and weather anomalies, with implications for ecosystem services and agriculture.
