River Research and Applications, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 1044-1057, June 2025.ABSTRACT Headwater streams are abundant in mountain landscapes and where municipal watersheds occur on public lands; they co‐occur with road networks open to off‐highway vehicle (OHV) use. Despite well‐known, deleterious interactions of roads and streams, few studies have empirically examined the biophysical impacts of OHV use where backcountry roads ...

Freshwater Biology, Volume 70, Issue 6, June 2025.ABSTRACT Benthic macroinvertebrates are crucial for linking dietary energy from the base of aquatic food webs to consumers at higher trophic levels. Ephemeroptera (mayfly) grazers rely on periphyton as their primary source of essential dietary nutrients, such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and other lipids.

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 5, Page 711-724, June 2025.ABSTRACT The substantial loss of insects we are experiencing today has been highlighted all over the world. There is a growing concern about the global decline of pollinators and its impact on terrestrial and agricultural ecosystems, but the focus of scientists towards bees remains the rule.

The Ephemeroptera of Øvre Heimdalsvatn
Ecography, 1978 The species composition, distribution, seasonal variations in abundance, life cycles, emergence periods, length‐weight relationships and biomass of the Ephemeroptera of Øvre Heimdalsvatn were investigated. Detritus was a significant factor in explaining the variation in total ephemeropteran numbers around the lake. Numbers in the exposed zone reached a

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.Oxford Nanopore Technologies MinION (ONT) Nanopore‐NanoPipe pipeline was compared to Illumina‐Obitools command‐line pipeline by using arthropod mock community input DNA for metabarcoding analysis. We demonstrated that a relatively simple ONT sequencing metabarcoding procedure followed by user‐friendly bioinformatics processing by graphical interface ...

Better Alone Than in Bad Company: Trophic Ecology of Co‐Occurring Invasive and Native Crayfish
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.This study investigated and compared trophic interactions between invasive signal crayfish and native white‐clawed crayfish at sites of co‐occurrence and in allopatry. The presence of crayfish plague, body condition, and trophic niche traits were explored as possible factors that make invasive signal crayfish a strong competitor, enhancing its ...

Croatian mayflies (Insecta, Ephemeroptera): species diversity and distribution patterns
ZooKeys, 2015 Knowledge of the mayfly biodiversity in the Balkan Peninsula is still far from complete. Compared to the neighbouring countries, the mayfly fauna in Croatia is very poorly known.

Robot‐Aided Measurement of Insect Diversity on Vegetation Using Environmental DNA
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.We developed a novel method combining drone‐based sampling and environmental DNA (eDNA) with Oxford Nanopore sequencing to monitor insect biodiversity on vegetation. Using a DJI Matrice 3 drone, we collected eDNA samples from grassland, shrub and forest habitats in Switzerland, detecting 64 insect taxa and revealing habitat‐specific differences in ...

Discovery of an alien species of mayfly in South America (Ephemeroptera)
ZooKeys, 2014 Despite its wide, almost worldwide distribution, the mayfly genus Cloeon Leach, 1815 (Ephemeroptera: Baetidae) is restricted in the Western hemisphere to North America, where a single species is reported.
