Longhorned beetle (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) diversity in a fragmented temperate forest landscape [v2; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/yz]

Longhorned beetles (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) are an important component of temperate forest ecosystems.  We trapped longhorned beetles in forests in northwest Ohio during 2008 to test the hypothesis that larger forests have greater species diversity than smaller forests.  Large forests had a signif...
