Aquatic macroinvertebrates of the Murray River

2023
MDFRC item.The aquatic macroinvertebrate fauna of the Murray River is presented based on surveys and scientific literature. Insects dominate the aquatic macroinvertebrate fauna but the non-insect groups such as the crustaceans, molluscs, worms and other primitive classes are also well represented.

A reference collection of Japanese aquatic macroinvertebrates

Ecological Genetics and Genomics, 2020
Abstract Properly identified specimen databases that include DNA sequences are mandatory for studies on species identification by DNA barcodes, metabarcoding of biota, and environmental DNA (eDNA) analyses. In addition, high-resolution digital images of well-characterized specimens are useful for morphology-based taxonomy studies.

Methods for quantifying aquatic macroinvertebrate diets

Freshwater Science, 2016
AbstractAquatic macroinvertebrates are central to lentic and lotic food webs, and characterizing the items they consume is often useful for studies of trophic ecology and food webs. Macroinvertebrate gut contents have been examined frequently by aquatic ecologists, but to our knowledge, no protocol describing how to conduct quantitative gut-content ...

Aquatic Macroinvertebrates

2018
Sampling of aquatic macroinvertebrates requires techniques that are efficient and representative. Stratification of sampling units is a practical way of ensuring representative coverage of the habitat. However, efficiency of sampling devices used in the field and techniques for extraction of specimens from samples has rarely been assessed.

TRANSFERABILITY OF HYDRAULIC PREFERENCE MODELS FOR AQUATIC MACROINVERTEBRATES

River Research and Applications, 2012
ABSTRACTQuantifying the transferability across stream reaches and sampling occasions of models relating the density of aquatic taxa to microhabitat hydraulics are important for increasing our understanding of the mechanisms explaining microhabitat selection.

Responses of epiphytic aquatic macroinvertebrates to hypoxia

Inland Waters, 2015
Different species of aquatic macrophytes have strongly contrasting effects on the oxygen dynamics of the waters they inhabit. We conducted laboratory experiments to test the hypothesis that macroinvertebrates inhabiting stands of the floating-leaved water-chestnut ( Trapa natans ), which causes severe hypoxia, are more resistant to low oxygen ...

Aquatic Macroinvertebrates of the Sava River

2014
The objective of this chapter is to present the data on aquatic macroinvertebrate communities along the Sava River, based on investigation performed during 2011 and 2012 at 12 sampling sites within the sector between Vrhovo (Slovenia) and Belgrade (confluence to the Danube).

Aquatic Plant-Macroinvertebrate Associations and Waterfowl

The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1970
An ecological study was conducted to determine the association of macroinvertebrates with 12 species of submerged aquatic plants common in central New York. The abundance and kind of animals associated with each plant species and with their substrates were determined.
