Inventarisatie van muggenlarven in de sierteelt onder glas [PDF]
Verschillende soorten muggenlarven kunnen een plaag vormen in de sierteelt. Ze leven op of in de bodem en in rottende plantenresten. Daar voeden ze zich voornamelijk met dood organisch materiaal en de schimmels die daarop groeien.

Estimating Rapid Diversity Changes During Acute Herbicide Contamination Using Environmental DNA
This study evaluates the use of environmental DNA metabarcoding to examine rapid changes in aquatic invertebrate communities following exposure to glyphosate‐based herbicide (GBH) in mesocosms under contrasted nutrient levels. We show a shift in community composition induced by GBH, and different impacts on zooplankton and insect family richness.

Challenges Using Extrapolated Family-level Macroinvertebrate Metrics in Moderately Disturbed Tropical Streams: a Case-study From Belize [PDF]
Family-level biotic metrics were originally designed to rapidly assess gross organic pollution effects, but came to be regarded as general measures of stream degradation.

Eurya japonica and Eurya emarginata exhibited Diptera‐dominated pollination systems. The composition of flower visitors on the two Eurya species was not explained by their floral traits. These findings indicate that the floral traits are not specifically adapted to their local pollinators.

Abstract Aim Aquatic‐terrestrial transition zones contain features essential for many species that often benefit wetland biodiversity. Shallow flood‐zone areas and reed beds are indicative of natural wetland habitats; however, how such features affect the native arthropod biodiversity in constructed wetlands is scarcely investigated. We asked how these
