“…The present results are in agreement with those of Magura (2002), who showed that species diversity was greater at the boundary between forest fragments and cultivated areas than in the centre of these habitats (Table 2). However, forest fragments in Gd (48 ha) and D (2,000 ha) that showed higher carabid and staphylinid diversity, compared with the forest fragments of the areas J (15 ha), GP (19 ha) and Gc (6 ha).…”

“…The adjacency of vegetation of two different habitats (agricultural fields and natural forests) results in an increase in floral diversity and vegetation heterogeneity (Marshall 1989;Yahner 1988). The increase in heterogeneity of vegetation along field edges has been shown to increase carabid species richness along field edges (Magura 2002). For example, boreal forests with sparse ground vegetation were found to have lower numbers of herbivorous invertebrate prey for carabids (Niemelä and Spence 1994).…”

“…For example, boreal forests with sparse ground vegetation were found to have lower numbers of herbivorous invertebrate prey for carabids (Niemelä and Spence 1994). The interspersion between grasses, shrubs, and boreal trees as seen in the edges between farming lands and boreal forests can effectively increase the density of ground vegetation, resulting in greater abundance of herbivorous invertebrates which, in turn, leads to higher carabid abundance along edges (Magura 2002). Similarly, the interspersion of vegetation types between the forest edges and urban habitat in north Ohio has been attributed to the increase in ant (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) species richness (Ivanov and Keiper 2010).…”

“…In each stand, 16 pitfall traps were placed randomly. The distance between traps was always larger than 5 m. In each stand, traps were at least 40 m apart from the nearest forest edge in order to avoid edge effects (Kotze and Samways 1999, Magura et al 2000b, 2001b, Magura 2002, Molnár et al 2001. Digweed et al (1995) suggest that traps 10 metres apart or closer are not statistically independent.…”
