Radiocesium-bearing microparticles cause a large variation in 137Cs activity concentration in the aquatic insect Stenopsyche marmorata (Tricoptera: Stenopsychidae) in the Ota River, Fukushima, Japan.

PLoS ONE, 2022
After the Tokyo Electric Power Company Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident in Japan, freshwater ecosystems near the site remained contaminated by radiocesium (RCs).

Attractivity of various artificial light sources to caddisfly (Trichoptera) species and its importance in their sampling and conservation

Journal of Insect Conservation, 2022
The artificial light sources are useful tools for sampling night active insects, however, they also possess potential environmental risks in their habitats.

Mild temperatures differentiate while extreme temperatures unify gene expression profiles among populations of Dicosmoecus gilvipes in California

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022
Accurately predicting the effects of future warming on aquatic ectotherms requires an understanding how thermal history, including average temperature and variation, affects populations of the same species.

PVC and PET microplastics in caddisfly (Lepidostoma basale) cases reduce case stability

Environmental science and pollution research international, 2020
Caddisfly larvae occur in streams and rivers, and many caddisfly species build protective cases using material from their habitat such as sand grains. At the same time, microplastics (MPs) are regularly deposited in aquatic sediments and are incorporated

Time-dependent accumulation of Cd, Co, Cu, Ni, and Zn in natural communities of mayfly and caddisfly larvae: Metal sensitivity, uptake pathways, and mixture toxicity.

Science of the Total Environment, 2020
Conceptual and quantitative models were developed to assess time-dependent processes in four sequential experimental stream studies that determined abundances of natural communities of mayfly and caddisfly larvae dosed with single metals (Cd, Co, Cu, Ni,

Evaluation of Minnesota Geographic Classifications Based on Caddisfly (Trichoptera) Data [PDF]

, 2018
The ability to partition the variation of faunal assemblages into homogenous units valuable for biomonitoring is referred to as classification strength (CS). In this study, the CSs of three types of geographic classifications: watershed basin, ecological
