Zoologica Scripta, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 614-640, September 2020., 2020 Abstract Clitellata is a major clade of Annelida comprising nearly all freshwater and terrestrial annelids as well as several marine species. We investigated clitellate phylogenetic relationships using transcriptomes sampled from 74 taxa (64 clitellates and 10 polychaetes), including multiple representatives of nearly all major clitellate higher taxa ...

Ecohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 1, January‐February 2026.ABSTRACT Benthic macroinvertebrates are indicators of water quality and riparian ecosystem health. Their abundance and distribution in streams are associated with river basin environmental factors, including stream biotic and abiotic fluvial processes. We examined benthic macroinvertebrate diversity and abundance in relation to large wood (LW) and pool‐

A dataset of individual wet weights of benthic macroinvertebrates
Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 9, Issue 6, Page 696-715, December 2024.Abstract Biomass estimates are crucial for modeling and understanding energy flow through ecosystems. Many modeling frameworks rely on published body weights of organisms to convert density estimates to biomass. However, published body weight data are limited to few taxa in a limited number of systems. Here we present mean individual weights for common
