Feeding Ecology of the Critically Endangered Gobio insuyanus (Gobionidae)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2025.
This study investigates the diet of the critically endangered Gobio insuyanus in the Insuyu spring–stream system, revealing omnivorous feeding habits with a preference for detritus, Gammarids, and Diptera larvae. Ontogenetic dietary shifts were observed, with mature individuals specializing in larger prey, while habitat and seasonal variations ...

Novel use of a servosphere to study apodous insects: Investigation of blow fly post‐feeding larval dispersal

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 39, Issue 1, Page 14-21, March 2025.
A servosphere was used to record the speed, directionality and phototaxis of individual post‐feeding larvae of two species of blow fly (Diptera: Calliphoridae) on a smooth plastic surface over time. The servosphere rotates to compensate for the movement of an insect placed at its apex, thereby facilitating its unimpeded locomotion in any direction and ...

From subsidies to stressors: Positively skewed ecological gradients alter biological responses to nutrients in streams

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 35, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract Subsidy–stress gradients offer a useful framework for understanding ecological responses to perturbation and may help inform ecological metrics in highly modified systems. Historic, region‐wide shifts from bottomland hardwood forest to row crop agriculture can cause positively skewed impact gradients in alluvial plain ecoregions, resulting in ...
