Stream Invertebrate Responses to Fine Sediment Depend on the Organic and Inorganic Components
ABSTRACT Excess fine sediment ( < 2 mm) is a pervasive stressor of aquatic systems at a global scale. To date, most research quantifying ecological response to deposited fine sediment has been conducted without distinguishing between the organic and inorganic components of fine sediment, leaving mechanistic understanding of how fine sediment affects ...

Genomic evidence for the widespread presence of GH45 cellulases among soil invertebrates
Abstract Lignocellulose is a major component of vascular plant biomass. Its decomposition is crucial for the terrestrial carbon cycle. Microorganisms are considered primary decomposers, but evidence increases that some invertebrates may also decompose lignocellulose. We investigated the taxonomic distribution and evolutionary origins of GH45 hydrolases,

A bibliography of works for the identification of freshwater invertebrates in the British Isles [PDF]
This bibliography covers the literature up to the end of 1978. The criteria used in the selection of references were that they should aid identification of invertebrates directly; thus, works solely concerned with the taxonomy of a particular group are ...

Polychaetes and oligochaetes associated with intertidal rocky shores in a semi-enclosed industrial and urban embayment, with the description of two new species [PDF]
The species composition and relative abundance of the annelid benthic macrofauna (Polychaeta and Oligochaeta) inhabiting the rocky intertidal zone of the ria of Ferrol (Galicia, NW Spain) were studied during field collections, from 2000 to 2002.

Tree diversity and mycorrhizal type co‐determine multitrophic ecosystem functions
Tree species richness affected multitrophic ecosystem functioning by (1) increasing predation only in the mixture of EcM‐species (EcM), (2) decreasing herbivory damage only in the communities with both mycorrhizal types (AM + EcM) and (3) decreasing decomposition indicated by the soil fauna feeding activity.

Numbers and biomass of soil invertebrates in a reserved field in central Finland
The numbers and biomasses of soil invertebrates were investigated in a reserved field in central Finland. Samples were taken monthly from June to September. Five methods were employed to extract the animals from the soil samples. The animals were counted,
