Relative impacts of morphological alteration to shorelines and eutrophication on littoral macroinvertebrates in Mediterranean lakes [PDF]
Development of effective methods for assessing the ecological status of lakes based on littoral benthic fauna has been hampered by the lack of quantitative data on the relative impacts of key pressures on the benthic community.

We investigated riparian bryophytes as habitat for aquatic invertebrates in an interior Pacific Northwest (PNW) salmonid stream system. Our results demonstrate that bryophytes are highly productive habitat for aquatic invertebrates in interior Pacific Northwest salmonid streams.

Abstract Climate‐induced flow alteration is decreasing snowpack and advancing snowmelt, subjecting mountain streams to longer low‐flow periods. Yet, anticipating how stream ecosystems respond to prolonged low flows remains challenging because distinct trophic levels can respond differently, and non‐native predators can dampen or amplify responses. Here,

Abstract Prolonged droughts, driven by climate change and human pressures on water resources, are increasing in frequency and intensity, particularly impacting Alpine rivers. Benthic macroinvertebrates are one of the most important structural and functional components of Alpine lotic ecosystems.

Redescription of the pupa of Mallochohelea termophila (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae)
The pupal exuviae of Mallochohelea termophila (Spinelli) is redescribed, photographed and illustrated mainly based on the type-series. Pupae of the type-series were collected with forceps from a thermal stream and were attached to rocks about 200 m from ...

Fish predation cues induce drifting and emergence in an experimental stream mesocosm system
Abstract Predator–prey interactions are important drivers of adaptation in aquatic communities, shaping the behavior of invertebrates with cascading effects on community dynamics. Behavioral responses, such as moving with the downstream current (drift) or altering the timing of emergence, are strategies that reduce the risk of predator encounters ...
