Alternative prey influence the predation of mosquito larvae by three water bug species (Heteroptera: Nepidae) [PDF]
Limnological Review, 2020 The indirect interactions among multiple prey sharing a common predator characterize apparent competition. In conservation biological control involving mosquitoes and controphic prey against generalist insect predators, apparent competition may be a ...

Intraguild predation of water scorpion Laccotrephes japonensis (Nepidae: Heteroptera) [PDF]
Intraguild predation of water scorpion Laccotrephes japonensis (Nepidae: Heteroptera), 2009 Previous work on community structure of the invertebrate fauna of Japanese wetlands indicates the presence of intraguild predation between the heteropterans Laccotrephes japonensis (Nepidae) and Kirkaldyia deyrolli (Belostomatidae). We designed a series of experiments to understand the biotic interactions of several species of sympatric heteroptera and

Artificial Pond Habitats Placed in an Australian Berry Farm Support Invertebrate Diversity Including Pollinating Flies. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study investigated whether small, artificial ponds deployed within a commercial farm can function as microhabitats supporting diverse invertebrate communities. We recorded 40 invertebrate taxa from nine orders utilising the ponds, including honey bees, lady beetles and spiders, as well as three species of eristaline hoverflies.

Assessing the Relationship Between Macroinvertebrate Metrics and Fine Sediment Index for Ecological Biomonitoring in the Little Akaki River, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. [PDF]
Ecol EvolHabitat quality had a positive correlation with percentage of Ephemeroptera, percentage of EOT, and Shannon diversity index (r = 0.833, r = 0.880, and r = 0.939, respectively). PSI had positive correlation with number of taxa, and ASPT‐ETHbios (r = 0.819, and r = 0.798, respectively). Most sites were heavily sedimented.

Sex on the Beach: Sexual Size Dimorphism Among Aquatic Bugs (Nepomorpha) Inhabiting Different Habitats. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe examined the degree of sexual size dimorphism (SSD), based on body length, in approximately 45% of known water bug (Nepomorpha) species. Contrary to our initial hypothesis, we found that females are not significantly longer than males in most species. Our research revealed that habitat plays a significant role in SSD.

The Relationship between Benthic Macroinvertebrate Assemblages and Water Quality Parameters in the Sanyati Basin, Lake Kariba, Zimbabwe. [PDF]
ScientificWorldJournal, 2022 Biological monitoring of reservoirs is important in assessing aquatic health. This study aimed at assessing the structure of benthic macroinvertebrate communities in relation to physicochemical parameters along Sanyati basin shoreline in Lake Kariba, Zimbabwe.
