A dataset of individual wet weights of benthic macroinvertebrates

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 9, Issue 6, Page 696-715, December 2024.
Abstract Biomass estimates are crucial for modeling and understanding energy flow through ecosystems. Many modeling frameworks rely on published body weights of organisms to convert density estimates to biomass. However, published body weight data are limited to few taxa in a limited number of systems. Here we present mean individual weights for common

Condições de divisão e regeneração em Naididas

Boletins da Faculdade de Philosophia, Sciencias e Letras, Universidade de São Paulo. Zoologia, 1947
A posição da zona de divisão nos Oligoquetos paratômicos varia dentro da mesma população. Dos resultados obtidos pelos autores anteriores e das minhas experiências e observações depreende-se ser o n (o número dos segmentos precedentes à zona de divisão) influenciado por várias condições externas, assim como por certos fatores internos.

Ecological but Not Biological Traits of European Riverine Invertebrates Respond Consistently to Anthropogenic Impacts

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 33, Issue 12, December 2024.
ABSTRACT Aim To determine which riverine invertebrate traits respond consistently to anthropogenic impacts across multiple biogeographic regions. Location Europe. Time Period 1981–2021. Major Taxa Studied Riverine invertebrates. Methods We compiled a database of riverine invertebrate community time series for 673 sites across six European countries ...

Declines in Freshwater Mussels and Loss of Mussel–Invertebrate Interactions in the Subtropical Waterbodies of Dhaka, Bangladesh

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 34, Issue 11, November 2024.
ABSTRACT Freshwater mussels are a globally threatened taxon, but little is known about population trajectories for species outside Europe and North America. To contribute to understanding of mussel conservation status outside these regions, we surveyed mussel and other invertebrate populations in waterbodies across Dhaka, Bangladesh, to assess ...

Environmental warming increases the importance of high‐turnover energy channels in stream food webs

Ecology, Volume 105, Issue 6, June 2024.
Abstract Warming temperatures are altering communities and trophic networks across Earth's ecosystems. While the overall influence of warming on food webs is often context‐dependent, increasing temperatures are predicted to change communities in two fundamental ways: (1) by reducing average body size and (2) by increasing individual metabolic rates ...

Benthic Macroinvertebrates along the Haraz Downstream in Southern Caspian Sea Basin: In Gradient of the Physicochemical Parameters

International Journal of Zoology, 2014
The Haraz River is one of the most important rivers in the Caspian Sea basin. In order to investigate changes in the taxa abundance composition and feeding groups of the benthic macroinvertebrates, twelve-time sampling was carried out at nine stations ...

Diet in phenotypically divergent sympatric species of African weakly electric fish (genus: Campylomormyrus)—A hybrid capture/HTS metabarcoding approach

Molecular Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 4, February 2024.
Abstract Ecological speciation within the mormyrid genus Campylomormyrus resulted in sympatric species exhibiting divergence in their feeding apparatus and electric organ discharge (EOD). This study documents the overall diet of the genus Campylomormyrus and examines the hypothesis that the Campylomormyrus radiation is caused by adaptation to different

Catálogo de Oligochaeta Microdrili en la Colección de Invertebrados – Fundación Miguel Lillo (Tucumán, Argentina)

Acta Zoológica Lilloana, 2019
Los Oligochaeta acuáticos o Microdrili representan un componente importante de las comunidades de agua dulce en todo el mundo, pero han sido ignorados por los ecólogos y hay poca información sobre su distribución así como sus preferencias de hábitats ...
