“…Therefore, in light of the unutilized plant species hypothesis, we may explain the varying correlation between plant and insect diversities among previous studies by examining such factors. Second, previous studies have suggested that the proportion of generalist insects varies among study systems that differ in time after disturbance (Piechnik, Lawler, & Martinez, 2008), degree of land‐use intensification (de Araújo, Vieira, Lewinsohn, & Almeida‐Neto, 2015; Shinohara, Uchida, & Yoshida, 2019), spatial scale (Hughes, 2000) and taxonomic groups (Forister et al, 2015). Therefore, incorporating these factors into future studies would help explain the relationship between plant and insect species richness.…”
