Effect of changes in mowing intensity on stem-dwelling insects in an urban meadowscape

This data represents the sum total of all specimens collected during a
study of the effects of changing mowing intensity on the mortality
outcomes of overwintering stem-dwelling insects. This study was conducted
in a meadow restoration project called The Meadoway, located in Toronto,
ON. Stems of Solidago altissima were collected from the
meadowscape and subjected to various mowing intensities to determine
whether changes in intensity affect mowing as an environmental filter of
this ecological guild. Specimens in this dataset either emerged naturally
from stems or were obtained during stem dissections and represent insects
which failed to emerge. All data comes from a single year of sampling.
