The biostratigraphical history of Lake Otalampi in southern Finland, with special reference to the remains of subfossil midge fauna [PDF]
Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1969 The biostratigraphical history of a small lake Otalampi in southern Finland has been studied. The remains of subfossil Bosmina have been analysed and the biostratigraphy of the larvae of lacustrine Diptera has now been applied in Finnish palaeolimnology.

Experiments on invertebrate predation on cladocerans and its relationships with lake data
Journal of Limnology, 2021 Until recently, knowledge of the impact of invertebrate predators on cladocerans in the Brazilian Lake Monte Alegre was limited to a few species. In order to assess the effects of predation on other cladoceran species, experiments were carried out with ...

Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2010 The aim of this work was to evaluate whether diel vertical migration of microcrustaceans from Lake Monte Alegre is related to invertebrate predators, namely larvae of Chaoborus brasiliensis. The hypothesis tested in the experiments was that the migratory

Journal of Limnology, 2009 The response of Daphnia populations to invertebrate predators involves morphological or behavioural changes. Few studies suggest that contaminant aqueous metals, like Cu or Ni at environmentally relevant concentrations, interfere with invertebrate ...

Journal of Limnology, 2007 Some water fleas Daphnia change their head morphology to reduce predation risk in response to chemical substances (kairomones) released from larvae of the invertebrate predator Chaoborus (Insecta: Diptera).

Reduced intraspecific variation in lake trout food webs under warmer temperatures and smaller ecosystem sizes. [PDF]
EcologyAbstract Food web theory has illustrated that mobile top predators, such as lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush), can be potent stabilizers of food webs due to their ability to shift foraging behaviors in response to changing conditions. Consistent with this, research has demonstrated that mean lake trout food web attributes (i.e., trophic position and ...

Neckteeth formation in two species of the Daphnia curvirostris complex (Crustacea: Cladocera)
Journal of Limnology, 2011 Cladocerans of the genus Daphnia show different morphological adaptations against invertebrate predation. Among those, the formation of neckteeth has attracted substantial attention. Morphotypes exhibiting neckteeth better resist predation from larvae of

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Inducible defenses are a wide-spread defensive mechanism in Daphnia. For example, D. cucullata is known to form different adaptive morphologies under changing environmental conditions.

PLoS ONE, 2019 Filter feeding zooplankton are a crucial component of limnic food webs. Copepods and cladocerans are important prey organisms for first-level predators like the common and abundant larvae of phantom midges (Chaoborus sp.).
