“…Temperature may also influence herbivory and herbivore abundance by influencing invertebrates' metabolic activities and per capita consumption rates (Ehnes, Rall, & Brose, ; Vucic‐Pestic, Ehnes, Rall, & Brose, ). Plant functional traits (leaf traits) such as specific leaf area, life span (Zhang, Zhang, & Ma, ), concentrations of leaf carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus as well as the ratios of these elements determine leaf palatability, influence foraging decisions by herbivores and thus regulate susceptibility of plants to herbivory (Behmer, ; Leingärtner, Krauss, & Steffan‐Dewenter, ; Paul et al, ; Schädler, Jung, Auge, & Brandl, ). Furthermore, climate‐ and land use‐driven changes in the relative importance of top‐down control by natural enemies to bottom‐up control might affect invertebrate herbivore communities and thus herbivory (Martin, Reineking, Seo, & Steffan‐Dewenter, ; Péré, Jactel, & Kenis, ; Tylianakis & Morris, ).…”
