摘要: As urbanisation is set to continue, understanding the impact on wildlife becomes increasingly important if we are be able conserve biodiversity. an excellent group of bioindicators, invertebrates can allow us understand some forces in urban areas which upon biodiversity and populations. This paper discusses trends abundance, diversity richness related specific environmental traffic factors may at play.
