Insight Into Trophic Niche Differentiation in <i>Labeobarbus</i> (Cyprinidae) in the Luhoho Basin (Upper Congo Basin). [PDF]
Ecol EvolSix Labeobarbus species occur in the Middle Luhoho, a left‐bank affluent of the Lowa River, including two chiselmouth species (Labeobarbus brauni, L. longidorsalis) and three rubberlip species (L. caudovittatus, L. longifilis, L. paucisquamatus), as well as an intermediate phenotype referred to as the smiling phenotype.

Co-Occurrence Patterns of Aquatic Macroinvertebrates in Laurentian Great Lakes Coastal Wetlands. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe investigated community structure and species co‐occurrence patterns in Great Lakes coastal wetlands benthic macroinvertebrates using null models. We developed a framework and approach to address recent controversy over the use of presence‐absence matrices and null models to infer ecological interactions from non‐random co‐occurrence patterns using ...

Cooler and drier conditions increase parasitism in a subtropical damselfly population. [PDF]
Ecol EvolUnderstanding temporal variation of host–pathogen interactions might help to understand the impact of climate change on insect diseases. Here, we showed that seasonal variation of temperature and precipitation drives parasitism in subtropical climate.

LIFETIME REPRODUCTIVE SUCCESS AND THE OPPORTUNITY FOR SELECTION IN A NONTERRITORIAL DAMSELFLY (ODONATA: COENAGRIONIDAE) [PDF]
Evolution, 1986 Major components of male and female lifetime reproductive success (LRS) were quantified for a damselfly that exhibits "scramble competition" for mates. The opportunity for selection on male reproduction was potentially 2.9 times that for females. Differential fertility/clutch and survivorship each accounted for about half of the total variation in ...

Widespread Wolbachia infection in an insular radiation of damselflies (Odonata, Coenagrionidae)
Scientific Reports, 2019 AbstractWolbachia is one of the most common endosymbionts found infecting arthropods. Theory predicts symbionts like Wolbachia will be more common in species radiations, as host shift events occur with greatest frequency between closely related species.
