Integrating freshwater biodiversity data sources: Key challenges and opportunities

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 68, Issue 9, Page 1479-1488, September 2023., 2023
Abstract In order to better quantify spatial and temporal patterns in freshwater biodiversity, and potential underlying drivers of change, we must utilise the increasingly broad range of data available on freshwater ecosystems. Statistical advances in the field of integrated modelling provide new opportunities to further our understanding through the ...

Pleistocene environments, climate, and human activity in Britain during Marine Isotope Stage 7: insights from Oak Tree Fields, Cerney Wick, Gloucestershire

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 38, Issue 6, Page 840-865, August 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT Investigations at Oak Tree Fields, Cerney Wick, Gloucestershire, in western England have revealed a sequence of fluvial deposits dating from Marine Oxygen Isotope Stage (MIS) 7 to 5. At the base of the sequence, a series of gravel and sand facies were deposited, initially as part of a meandering river.

Anticipating where are unknown aquatic insects in Europe to improve biodiversity conservation

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 29, Issue 8, Page 1021-1034, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim Understanding biodiversity patterns is crucial for prioritizing future conservation efforts and reducing the current rates of biodiversity loss. However, a large proportion of species remain undescribed (i.e. unknown biodiversity), hindering our ability to conduct this task.

Diversity and Seasonality of Aquatic Beetles (Coleoptera) in Three Localities of the State of Tlaxcala, Central Mexico

open access: yesHydrobiology, 2023
Aquatic beetle diversity was compared between three study sites in the state of Tlaxcala, central Mexico: Stream 1 (San Ambrosio), stream 2 (San Tadeo), and a lake (Acuitlapilco). Sampling took place bimonthly during an annual cycle.

Are patterns of sampling effort and completeness of inventories congruent? A test using databases for five insect taxa in the Iberian Peninsula

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 15, Issue 4, Page 406-415, July 2022., 2022
The congruence in the spatial distribution of the sampling effort for five insect groups (butterflies, caddisflies, dung beetles, moths, and aquatic beetles) in the Iberian Peninsula was assessed. A general lack of reliable inventories is the rule as well as a general low geographical congruence in the completeness patterns of the different taxa. After

Physicochemical drivers of managed river and agricultural drainage channel macroinvertebrate communities

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 37, Issue 4, Page 675-680, May 2021., 2021
Abstract Artificial channels are common features in lowland agricultural catchments, and are a potentially significant habitat for aquatic species. Recent studies have suggested communities in managed rivers and artificial channels are broadly similar, but with some compositional differences.

Diversity and distribution of aquatic beetles (Insecta: Coleoptera) in Brazilian caves based on the Zoological Collection of the Laboratório de Estudos Subterrâneos (LES) of the Universidade Federal de São Carlos (UFSCar) [PDF]

open access: yesPapéis Avulsos de Zoologia
Water beetles are taxonomically diverse and can colonize different environments. Sixteen families occur in Brazil, most of which have already been recorded in caves.
