Biogeography and Reinterpretation of the Evolution of Paternal Care Scenario in Belostomatidae (Insecta, Hemiptera)

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To estimate the origin and diversification times of the main lineages of Belostomatidae, with emphasis on the subfamilies Belostomatinae and Lethocerinae; to reconstruct the biogeographical history of the family's representatives, estimating which locations may have served as important sources of immigration and emigration events and ...

An experimental examination of dispersal decisions made by flight‐capable heteropteran insects in urban stormwater pond conditions

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 4, Page 672-689, August 2026.
Salty conditions in urban stormwater ponds can influence dispersal timing in species‐specific ways for actively dispersing aquatic heteropteran insects. Assaying multiple aspects of dispersal propensity, Hesperocorixa obliqua emigrated earlier in stormwater pond conditions while overall probabilities remained unchanged; Notonecta undulata emigration ...

Conservation priorities for Neotropical water striders (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Gerridae) under climate change

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
Hydrologic changes driven by climate change are affecting aquatic biota in the Neotropical Region, with significant impacts on water striders. Species distribution models predict an increase in conservation importance for the northern Andes and coastal areas of eastern South America, while central South America shows a decline. The observed changes are

Aquatic Heteroptera as indicators for terrestrialisation of floodplain habitats

open access: yesLimnologica - Ecology and Management of Inland Waters, 2010
AbstractThe distribution of aquatic Heteroptera (Corixidae and Gerromorpha) in three backwater systems of the Austrian Alluvial Forest National Park differing in connectivity to the Danube River was examined at 44 locations between 1999 and 2003. The most common species were Aquarius paludum and Gerris lacustris (Gerridae).Various statistical analyses ...

Chironomids as Indicators of Biodiversity and Isolation Patterns in a Balkan Karst Biodiversity Hotspot

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Our research aimed to assess the beta diversity of Chironomidae (Diptera) and faunal connections across springs, streams, and rivers within the Skadar Lake basin, a Mediterranean biodiversity hotspot, using DNA barcoding. Location Skadar Lake basin—a Mediterranean biodiversity hotspot. Methods We analysed mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase

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.

Where water meets rock: Ecological niches and diversity hotspots of hygropetric beetles in the Neotropics

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 502-516, June 2026.
First continental‐scale synthesis of hygropetric beetle diversity and distribution across Neotropical highlands. Climatic and topographic gradients structure regional assemblages and niche overlap. Ecological convergence suggests adaptation to similar conditions across disjunct regions.

More Is Not Always Better: Selective Trait Filtering Governs Assembly Under Emerging Flow Intermittency

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
The study examined how increasing flow intermittency affects macroinvertebrate community organisation in newly drying headwater streams. Results showed that drying selectively filters species and trait states, with resistance‐ and resilience‐related survival strategies responding differently to increasing intermittency.
