  abstract = {{T}o better understand the role of habitat quality and boundaries on population dynamics at the landscape scale, we develop a model combining a spatially implicit approach, a spatial population {L}eslie-type model and an implicit model of habitat fragmentation. {A}n original approach of elasticity permits to identify which types of element and boundary influence the most population viability according to the wood fragmentation degree. {T}he studied species is a corridor forest insect sensitive to fragmentation ({A}bax parallelepipedus, {C}oleoptera, {C}arabidae). {W}e show that a single large patch of wood is better than several small patches for the population viability.},
