“随着开发步伐的加快及随之而来的栖息地破坏，野生动植物种群面临的压力达到了我国历史上的最高峰。正如 Doug Tallamy 通过广泛研究证实的那样，本土植物物种与本土野生动植物之间存在着不可割断的联系。当本土植物物种消失或被外来入侵物种取代时，昆虫便会灭绝，从而使鸟类和其他动物的食物来源陷入贫乏。幸运的是，扭转这一令人震惊的趋势尚为时不晚，园艺爱好者们完全有能力做出重大贡献……

……几乎不用怎么打理就能长得极好。然后你还可以收集它们的种子。我真的很希望我们种的这些马利筋能引来更多黑脉金斑蝶。去年我们就见到了几只。我很喜欢道格拉斯·塔拉米的书《Bringing Nature Home》和《Nature's Best Hope》。
…strongly with minimal care. Then you can collect their seeds. I am really hoping that all the milkweed we're planting brings more monarchs. Last year, we saw a couple. I like Douglas Tallamy's books Bringing Nature Home and Nature's Best Hope.
这话听着确实有点怪。猛禽可能不会停在本土树木上，但它们肯定依赖底下的食物链，而食物链离不开本土植物。道格·塔拉米的《Bringing Nature Home》有力地论证了本土植物对健康生态系统的重要性。（提示：关键在于昆虫。）
That does seems like kind of a strange thing to say. Raptors may not sit in the native trees but they certainly depend on the food chain below them that needs the natives. Doug Tallamy's Bringing Nature Home makes a convincing case for the importance of native plants to healthy ecosystems. (Hint: it's the insects.)
正如其他人推荐的那样，去看看道格拉斯·塔拉米的《Bringing Nature Home》吧。他是昆虫学家，非常清晰地阐述了本土植物、本土昆虫与更大生态系统之间的联系。
As others have recommended, check out Douglas Tallamy's Bringing Nature Home. He's an entomologist and sets out a very clear connection between native plants, native insects, and the larger ecosystem.
