The values of native grasslands for conservation of endemic native biodiversity, both flora and fauna, have led to strong interests in the protection of remaining fragments, especially near urban centres, and documentation of the insects and other inhabitants of grasslands spanning tropical to cool temperate parts of the country. Attention to conservation of grassland insects in Australia is relatively recent, but it is increasingly apparent that grasslands harbour many localised and ecologically specialised endemic species. Their conservation necessarily advances from very incomplete documentation, and draws heavily on lessons from the far better-documented grasslands elsewhere, most notably in the northern hemisphere, and undertaken over far longer periods.From those cases, and the extensive background to grassland management to harmonise conservation with production and amenity values through honing use of processes such as grazing, mowing and fire, the needs and pr | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | 关键词 | Lepidoptera; Hemiptera; Hymenoptera; Grassland Biome; Coleoptera; Orthoptera; Invasive grasses; Australian | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-22780-7 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-22782-1 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-22780-7 | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019 |
