Heavy metals in carabids (Coleoptera, Carabidae) [PDF]
Carabid beetles (Coleoptera, Carabidae) are one of the most studied soil groups in relation to heavy metal (HM) accumulation and use for bioindication of environmental pollution. Accumulation of Zn and Cu in carabid beetles was species-, sex- and trophic

Xenobiotic biotransformation potential of Pseudomonas rhodesiae KCM-R5 and Bacillus subtilis KCM-RG5, tolerant to heavy metals and phenol derivatives [PDF]
Two environmental bacterial isolates KCM-R5 and KCM-RG5 were selected from xenobiotic-polluted environment. KCM-R5 was identified as Pseudomonas rhodesiae and KCM-RG5 as Bacillus subtilis.

Evaluating Multiple Arthropod Taxa as Indicators of Invertebrate Diversity in Old Fields [PDF]
Biodiversity, often quantified by species richness, is commonly used to evaluate and monitor the health of ecosystems and as a tool for conservation planning. The use of one or more focal taxa as surrogates or indicators of larger taxonomic diversity can

Macrophytes as bioindicators [PDF]
Submerged macrophytes respond to changes in the nutrient concentrations in their environment. In contrast to diatoms e.g., submerged macrophytes are capable of taking up nutrients from both the sediment pore water and the overlying water. Therefore, macrophytes can provide a more comprehensive assessment of river ecosystems. Two methods using submerged

Lichens as biological indicators of air quality in the urban area of Kuršumlija (Southern Serbia) [PDF]
In this work, we provided a first indication of Kuršumlija (town of Southern Serbia) air quality using epiphytic lichens known as bioindicators. The investigations were carried out from April to October 2014.
