A honey trap: Female-baited beetle traps reveal habitat variation in Japanese forests

Monitoring biological indicators plays a crucial role in forest management, which requires finding a delicate balance between timber use and biodiversity conservation. Across forests and species, responses to forestry operations that alter habitat conditions vary, so repeatable surveys of biological indicators like ground-dwelling beetles can capture spatial variation in forests and changes over time.
