This study introduces a novel approach to assess aquatic habitat availability in NPRs, applied to a regulated reach of the Sangone River (Northern Italy).

Morphological and biomechanical adaptations of larval mandibles in Trichoptera (Insecta)
Mandible morphology differs between predators and grazers: predators show pointed incisors, grazers sharp edges and setae. Mechanical properties depend on cuticle tanning, not elemental reinforcement. Functional mandible types reflect feeding strategies, with predators specialized for prey capture and grazers for scraping and collecting.
