Synopsis of the genera of Ceratopogonidae (Diptera) [PDF]
A synopsis is presented for the classification of the 78 genera and subgenera of Ceratopogonidae of the world. Taxonomic keys are given for the separation of the genera. A short history is given for the classification of the family. The biting midges of this family include important bloodsucking pests, vectors of several animal diseases, pollinators of

Drying Halves Decomposition Rates in River Networks by Decreasing Decomposer Diversity
Short drying events can have long‐lasting impacts on the functioning of whole river networks. We found that just a few days without water reduced leaf decomposition by up to half, because drying reduced the diversity of communities of organisms that recycle organic matter. These effects continued for months after flow returned. Hydrological connections

Abstract Introduction Agricultural activities are a major driver of biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation in subtropical streams, often altering macroinvertebrate community structure and associated ecosystem functions. Although restoration strategies increasingly target these impacts, the relative importance of riparian shading and in‐stream ...

Abstract The Qualified Presumption of Safety (QPS) process was developed to provide a harmonised safety assessment approach to support EFSA Scientific Panels and Units. The QPS approach assesses the taxonomic identity, body of knowledge and safety of microorganisms intentionally added to the food and feed chain.

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 ...

ABSTRACT Headwaters often contribute disproportionately to network‐scale benthic biodiversity as differences in community composition between separate headwater streams (β‐diversity) can be high although local (α) diversity may be low. Most research on stream β‐diversity has adopted a spatial perspective, whereas temporal β‐diversity remains largely ...
