Freshwater Mussel Anodonta cygnea Reduces Concentration, Germination Rate and Infectivity of Pathogenic Oomycete Saprolegnia spp. Spores

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Saprolegniosis, also known as water mould, is a lethal disease caused by Saprolegnia oomycetes that threatens freshwater animals including fish, amphibians, and crustaceans, as well as aquaculture. It causes biodiversity loss and population declines, including those of endangered fishes.

The Integration of Fire Ecology and Freshwater Ecosystems in North America: Knowledge Gaps and Research Needs

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
Illustration of key knowledge gaps and pathways linking fire ecology and freshwater ecosystems. Climate change provides the overarching context, interacting with cumulative and cross‐scale effects to shape local freshwater conditions. Within this context, fire characteristics influence three primary pathways within freshwater ecosystems: species and ...

Environmentally Grounded Pseudo‐Absence Sampling for Species Distribution Models: A Language Guided Framework

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Species Distribution Models (SDMs) are widely used in conservation planning, invasive species management and global change assessments. Their reliability depends on both presence and absence data, yet biodiversity databases are dominated by presence records, while true absences are rarely collected and geographically restricted.

Use of three forms of decapsulated Artemia cysts as food for juvenile noble crayfish (Astacus astacus)

Czech Journal of Animal Science, 2011
Summerling (six-month old) noble crayfish fed two forms of freshly decapsulated (FD) Artemia cysts more than tripled their weight during a 75-day experiment under controlled conditions. Final survival rates were at the level of 90%.
