Freshwater Biology, Volume 70, Issue 7, July 2025.ABSTRACT Aquatic insects are an abundant, yet declining, taxonomically heterogeneous group with special importance in both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Accurate estimations of insect biomass during their aquatic life stages are essential to advance our fundamental knowledge about insects, their roles in ecosystems, and their vulnerability to ...

Palaeoendemic invertebrates weakly reflect palaeoendemic plants across a 52‐year‐old fire boundary
Austral Ecology, Volume 49, Issue 9, September 2024.Palaeoendemic invertebrates are associated with palaeoendemic vascular plants more than could be expected by chance in alpine/subalpine ecosystems on either side of a 52‐year‐old fire boundary. However, some palaeoendemic invertebrates are generalists in their associations with plant species.

eDNA Is a Useful Environmental Monitoring Tool for Assessing Stream Ecological Health
Environmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 4, July–August 2024.Ecosystem health assessments made by traditional biomonitoring techniques were compared to those made using eDNA at 53 sites throughout New Zealand. We found a high degree of correlation and convergence between biotic indices calculated from traditional biomonitoring techniques and from eDNA.

Long‐term environmental flows restore benthic invertebrate communities in a highly regulated river
Restoration Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 5, July 2024.The construction of dams and other in‐stream structures for human use has altered river ecosystems worldwide. Dams degrade rivers, and environmental flow releases aim to mitigate flow alterations and restore rivers downstream of dams by returning elements of the pre‐regulation flow regime, resulting in an ecosystem that resembles a more natural state ...
