Linda Tegg’s Pop up landscape led to an increase in biodiversity in all of the following except:

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks which group did not see an increase in biodiversity as a result of Linda Tegg’s Pop up landscape project. 
Option 1: Parasites. In ecosystems, higher biodiversity often supports a wider range of parasites due to more host species and interactions; thus this option could plausibly show an increase.
Option 2: Miscreants. This term does not correspond to a standard ecological functional group. It refers more to human troublemakers or informal vernacular rather than a biological category, so it is unlikely to be considered a biodiversity category that would increase due to the landscape project.
Option 3: Predators. Predator diversity typically responds to increases in prey base and habitat complexity, so it is reasonable to expect some increase in predators with more diverse landscapes.
Option 4: Herbivores. With a richer plant community and more niches, herbivore diversity commonly rises, since more plant types and structures can support different herbivore species.
Option 5: Detritivores. Detritivores depend on the litter and organic matter produced in a biodiverse habitat; more varied vegetation and soils often lead to higher detritivore diversity.
Option 6: Pollinators. Diverse floral resources and habitats usually bolster pollinator communities, making an increase in pollinators a common outcome of biodiversity-friendly landscapes.

In summary, all of the ecological groups listed—parasites, predators, herbivores, detritivores, and pollinators—are legitimate categories that can show increases in biodiversity under richer landscape mosaics. The term Miscreants stands apart as an informal or nonstandard label for organisms and does not represent a recognized ecological group or guild, which is why it is the statement describing the exception in this context.
