Dragonfly taxonomic and functional responses to urbanized streams in southeastern Europe, with management recommendations

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Urbanization drives turnover in dragonfly species composition, traits, and habitat conservation value. Natural stream sections have a higher conservation value (higher DBI) due to presence of specialists. Properly managed urban streams can support diverse dragonfly assemblages.

Challenges and Advances Driving Studies on Aquatic Insects of the Order Coleoptera

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aquatic beetles (Coleoptera) are known for their high taxonomic and ecological diversity and their sensitivity to environmental changes, making them key bioindicators in ecological assessments. However, numerous knowledge gaps persist globally.

Interplay of Diet, Heat Stress, and the Microbiome Shapes Health and Escape Behaviour in Amphibian Larvae

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 6, June 2026.
Diet and temperature jointly shape the gut microbiome and host performance in amphibian larvae. In a multifactorial experiment with Rana temporaria, diet quality, rearing temperature, and heatwave exposure altered microbial communities and predicted metabolic pathways, while host health remained largely stable, suggesting microbiome plasticity and ...

Diverse root trait syndromes underlie species' nutrient acquisition strategies in a phosphorus‐limited forest

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Plants allocate finite carbon‐based photosynthates into root construction, mycorrhizal symbiosis, and exudate production for nutrient acquisition. Global syntheses suggest these belowground allocation constraints shape species' root trait expression and trade‐offs, yet whether similar root trait relationships occur in phosphorus (P)‐limited ...

Visual Cues Can Alter the Behavioural Responses of Dragonfly Larvae to Chemical Alarm Cues

open access: yesEthology, Volume 132, Issue 5, Page 349-358, May 2026.
Using a controlled experimental approach, we examined how chemical and visual cues influence antipredator behaviour in Aeshna cyanea larvae and tested whether risk‐related information can be socially transmitted among nearby conspecifics. Our results show that dragonfly larvae do not copy the antipredator responses of others, but visual cues alter how ...
