摘要: Synopsis a small-scale beating survey of the Orthoptera (bush-crickets) and dermaptera (earwigs) green lane hedgerows was undertaken in essex. Hedgerow dating (Hooper’s rule) used to ascertain whether insects were related woody plant species richness. Orthopteroid abundance richness significantly correlated with number plants hedgerows. Byways had particularly species-rich, ancient (often over 500 years age) favourable for bush-crickets such as Meconema thalassinum. Sunlit patches BlackthornPrunus spinosa Bramble Rubus fruticosus hedgerow especially important orthopteroids this survey.
