Chaoborus predation and the function of phenotypic variation in Daphnia

Hydrobiologia, 1986
To investigate the role of helmet formation in defense against predation, laboratory experiments were used to analyze the effects of morphological changes in Daphnia on susceptibility to Chaoborus predation. Behavioral observations of Chaoborus preying on helmeted and non-helmeted Daphnia suggest pre-contact advantages for helmeted prey but post ...

Do Chaoborus larvae migrate in temporary pools?

Hydrobiologia, 1984
A diurnal vertical migration of larvae of Chaoborus punctipennis (Say) was observed in shallow temporary woodland pools in East Texas. In the laboratory, in 153 cm tall columns, the larvae underwent a much greater migration than possible in the shallow pools.

UVR Sensitivity of Chaoborus Larvae

AMBIO: A Journal of the Human Environment, 2003
In small temperate lakes, predation by fish generally regulates the species structure and abundance of larval Chaoborus. Yet, Chaoborus abundance may also vary appreciably among lakes with no fish. Many fishless lakes in Sudbury, Ontario, have transparent waters.

A Chaoborus Bibliography

Bulletin of the Entomological Society of America, 1970
The beautiful transparent “phantom” larvae of Chaoborus (= Corethra of authors) are the only truly planktonic insects. Their ubiquity and hardiness made them favorites of the early microscopists, and they have been the subject of a considerable but scattered literature, produced mainly by freshwater biologists and invertebrate physiologists.
