Establishment of the mayfly Cloeon dipterum as a new model system to investigate insect evolution
EvoDevo, 2018 The great capability of insects to adapt to new environments promoted their extraordinary diversification, resulting in the group of Metazoa with the largest number of species distributed worldwide.

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.

Are sulfate effects in the mayfly Neocloeon triangulifer driven by the cost of ion regulation?
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Biological Sciences, 2018 Elevated major ion concentrations in streams are commonly observed as a consequence of resource extraction, de-icing and other anthropogenic activities.

Global Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 6, June 2025.Northern lakes are changing due to climate warming and landscape alterations. Three decades of time‐series data for 110 Swedish lakes showed that phytoplankton and bottom‐dwelling littoral and profundal faunal assemblages are responding to these environmental changes. Yet, the responses differed among the three organism groups.

Tiny Killers: First Record of Rhabdocoel Flatworms Feeding on Water Flea Embryos
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.The flatworm Strongylostoma simplex simplex, a rhabdocoel microturbellarian, was observed preying on Daphnia water flea embryos in small water bodies in urban Berlin. An experiment confirmed that flatworm exposure drastically reduced Daphnia survival and reproduction, highlighting a strong predation pressure. This novel interaction may have significant

Kinematics and hydrodynamics of swimming in the mayfly larva [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2004 SUMMARYThe kinematics and hydrodynamics of free-swimming mayfly larvae(Chloeon dipterum) were investigated with the aid of a simple wake visualisation technique (tracer dyes) and drag measurements on dead insects. The basic swimming movement consists of a high-amplitude dorso-ventral undulation and, during continuous swimming, this produces a wake of ...
