Are Intermittent Rivers in the Karst Mediterranean Region of the Balkans Suitable as Mayfly Habitats?

open access: yesDiversity, 2023
Intermittent rivers, common in dry parts of the world, such as the Mediterranean region, are hydrologically harsh habitats characterized by periodical flow cessation.

Effects of Engineered Dam Releases on Benthic Assemblages During Drought and Comparison With Unregulated Reaches

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT River regulation following damming is often associated with deleterious downstream effects, in large part due to reduced total discharge and disruption of seasonal flooding. These effects would be expected to be exacerbated by drought, particularly extended drought.

Development and Improvement of Habitat Suitability Criteria for Instream Habitat Assessments Conducted in Support of Environmental Flows in Florida

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Florida's regulatory framework requires the establishment of minimum flows to protect aquatic ecosystems and water resources from significant harm. One of the primary methods used to evaluate significant harm is assessment of instream habitat, which relies on Habitat Suitability Criteria (HSC) curves that relate flow regimes and habitat ...

The Enhanced Mayfly Optimization Algorithm with Roulette Wheel Selection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
In the year 2020, the Mayfly optimization method was proposed. It is a modification of particle swarm optimization and it combines major advantages of particle swarm optimization, genetic algorithm, and firefly algorithm.

Ain’t No Mountain High Enough – Studies on the Upland Summer Mayfly (Ameletus inopinatus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The Upland Summer Mayfly (Ameletus inopinatus) is the only arctic-alpine mayfly species found in Great Britain. Previous research in Europe using climate models have shown that the geographical range of this species is likely to contract as water ...

Dietary differentiation of two co‐occurring common bat species (Eptesicus nilssonii and Pipistrellus pygmaeus)

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Sympatric bat species can co‐exist and avoid interspecific competition via niche differentiation e.g. diet. Detecting dietary differences can be achieved by comparing dietary niches of sympatric and allopatric populations. If dietary overlap is higher in sympatry versus allopatry, co‐occurrence may be altering the dietary niche of the species.

Biological invasions disrupt the relationship between size spectrum and trophic interactions in freshwater fish communities

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Our study shows that non‐native species alter the relationship between the size‐spectrum slope and the predator–prey mass ratio (PPMR) in freshwater fish communities by occupying distinct trophic niches. Abstract The size spectrum, which describes the relationship between abundance (or biomass) and body size, is an ataxic approach that can provide ...

Eurylophella karelica Tiensuu, 1935 (Insecta: Ephemeroptera: Ephemerellidae) – an additional species to the mayfly fauna of Ukraine and notes on distribution of the family in the country

open access: yesJournal of Threatened Taxa, 2020
A rare European species, Eurylophella karelica Tiensuu, 1935 (Ephemeroptera: Ephemerellidae) is reported for the first time from Ukraine.  The larvae of the species were found within Ukrainian Polissya region in the Pripyat’ River basin.

Ecological scale mediates nonlinear relationships of animal nutrient excretion with dissolved organic matter

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We show that nutrient excretion by vertebrates and invertebrates varies nonlinearly with dissolved organic matter concentration and composition and by taxonomic rank, with stronger patterns at the individual compared to the community level. Our findings highlight the importance of examining animal‐mediated nutrient cycling across taxa and ecological ...
