Adult caddisflies (Trichoptera) collected by a light trap in the Myojin Area in Kamikochi, Chubu Sangaku National Park, Japan. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
There are few reports of caddisfly fauna in Kamikochi because the location is a special protection zone in the national park. The objective of this study is to clarify the species composition of adult caddisflies by a light trap in Kamikochi. In addition,

Continental accumulation of fads2 copy numbers allows sticklebacks to thrive across a diversity of nutritional landscapes

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Nutrients, including vital organic compounds, vary in availability across ecosystems, with the potential to act as a source of selection for traits that increase nutrient acquisition and biosynthesis. Compared to freshwaters, marine ecosystems are richer in the omega‐3 long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (n‐3 LC‐PUFA) docosahexaenoic acid (DHA ...

Prospects for Complete DNA Barcode Coverage of the New Zealand Insect Fauna

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, Volume 56, Issue 4, August 2026.
The accurate identification of insects supports conservation, biosecurity and ecological monitoring. However, morphological identification is constrained by taxonomic complexity, undescribed diversity, and limited expertise. DNA barcoding can alleviate some of these challenges and complement morphological identification, if reference data are ...

Description of two new species of Xiphocentron Brauer, 1870 (Trichoptera: Xiphocentronidae) from southeastern Brazil

open access: yesTropical Zoology, 2017
In addition to the six species of Xiphocentron Brauer, 1870 currently recorded in Brazil, two new species of X. (Antillotrichia) are described and illustrated in this work: X. (Antillotrichia) acqualume n. sp. and X. (Antillotrichia) jaguare n.

Preliminary indoor evidences of microplastic effects on freshwater benthic macroinvertebrates

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Plastics are to date considered one of the main detrimental drivers for the health of aquatic ecosystems, both in marine and inland waters. Regarding the latter habitat, it seems surprising how the plastic effects on benthic invertebrates are neglected ...

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 ...

Do solar farms alter invertebrate communities and reduce activity of the common pipistrelle bat (Pipistrellus pipistrellus) through prey‐mediated effects?

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.
We investigated the effects of ground‐mounted solar photovoltaic (PV) farms on arthropod communities and tested whether changes in prey availability explain reduced bat activity. Solar farms altered arthropod community composition but did not reduce the abundance of key dipteran prey for Pipistrellus pipistrellus.

Potential Impacts of Low Flows on Fish Foodscapes and Production in a Braided River

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 1366-1382, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Changes in river discharge affect the physical composition and connectivity of habitats which, in turn, may shape the spatial distribution of fish food abundance, accessibility and quality—the ‘foodscape’—of river ecosystems. However, the influence of river flows on fish foodscapes has received very little attention from scientists. We studied
