Artificial light at night and invasive signal crayfish alter aquatic‐terrestrial food webs
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Resource flows across aquatic‐terrestrial boundaries are increasingly affected by multiple stressors, such as artificial light at night (ALAN) and aquatic invasive species, which can alter the availability of resources for consumers.

APPLICATIONS OF PHYLOGENETICS TO ISSUES IN FRESHWATER CRAYFISH BIOLOGY
Freshwater crayfish have served as model organisms for over 125 years in scientific research, from areas such as neurobiology and vision research to conservation biology and evolution.

Allochthonous chemical cues drive predation by a top carnivore
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Identifying the mechanisms by which mobile predators detect and select prey remains a central challenge in sensory biology and functional ecology. This study provides the first direct evidence that chemical cues associated with allochthonous organic matter (e.g.

Stable isotopes of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) were studied in 11 stream communities in the Waikato region of New Zealand. From comparisons of mean d13C and d15N values, food webs in the shaded, forest streams were clearly based on allochthonous material

Eroded Swimmeret Syndrome: Update of the Current Knowledge
Eroded swimmeret syndrome (ESS) was first described in 2014 from Swedish signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus (Dana)), and later also from Finland, with gross symptoms and disease agent candidates identified and described by 2015.

Crayfish: A Culture Species for Freshwater Bodies
Crayfish, commonly known as freshwater lobster, have been scientifically distributed in three genuses, which are as follows: - Cumberfish, Oronectes and Phalisaberus. Crayfish breeding and rearing techniques in China and some Adapted and practiced in South-East Asian countries. The proper ratio of broodstock female and male is 3: 1.

We apply a new parameterized model through linking metabolic scaling and the maximum entropy theory of ecology to quantify the intraspecific metabolic scaling exponent of brown trout populations and assess the main drivers shaping the exponent. Abstract Metabolic scaling fundamentally sets the pace of life in almost all organisms.

Water from the Yarragadee Aquifer surfaces in Poison Gully and Milyeannup Brook, and maintains flow in these Blackwood River tributaries throughout the year. It also enters Layman Brook during winter and spring, yet this stream dries during summer.

Our findings show that beaver‐engineering significantly enhances local biodiversity across aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, even at sites with high land‐use intensity. Hence, beavers can effectively restore stream biodiversity across a range of urban to agricultural to natural ecosystems.

The recent introduction of redclaw crayfish for aquaculture to the Ord River region of Western Australia has been followed by the detection of a ‘wild’ population in Lake Kununurra. A gut survey of the lake’s fish fauna was used to estimate the degree of
