Responses of Macroinvertebrate Communities to Heterogeneity Among Typical Reaches in the Upper Yangtze River. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study examines how hydraulic and geomorphological heterogeneity shape benthic macroinvertebrate communities in the mountainous upper Yangtze River. Integrating field measurements with hydrodynamic modeling, it identifies distinct community patterns across canyon, anabranching, and Reef–Tuo reaches, driven by flow velocity, sediment dynamics, and ...

From Mud to Meat: Comparative Metabarcoding Reveals Two Different Evolutionary Paths to Carnivory in a Group of Meiofaunal Annelids. [PDF]
Mol EcolABSTRACT Evolutionary transitions to carnivory represent profound shifts in feeding mode that are often accompanied by widespread changes in organismal function, behaviour and ecology. Such transitions have evolved numerous times among animals, and predator–prey interactions have been major drivers of animal evolution.

Gaps and Data Ambiguities in DNA Reference Libraries: A Limiting Factor for Molecular-Based Biodiversity Assessments Using Annelids as a Case Study. [PDF]
Ecol EvolRegional DNA reference libraries are crucial for molecular biodiversity assessments, yet they remain incomplete, limiting their effectiveness. Using annelids from the Arabian Peninsula as a case study, we identified considerable gaps in species coverage and minimal representation in public databases.

Deterministic and Stochastic Processes Regulate Co-Occurrence Network Structure and Shape Macroinvertebrate Diversity in Karst Environment. [PDF]
Ecol EvolKeystone taxa and co‐occurrence network modules are fundamental basis for maintaining biodiversity in macroinvertebrate communities. Modules enhance interactions among macroinvertebrates and promote species coexistence which further influences diversity.
