Some Stenus Latr, from Michigan (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae) 107th Contribution to the Knowledge of Steninae [PDF]
Our knowledge of the nearctic Stenus-fauna is very poor. The main work on the Steninae has been done at the end of the last century by the well-known coleopterist Th. L. Casey who is known for his peculiar systematic methods.

Habitat‐Based Predictions of Bridle Shiner (Notropis bifrenatus) in the Northeastern United States
We developed local and regional models for Maine and New Hampshire that may be used to focus bridle shiner (Notropis bifrenatus) surveys on areas with high predicted habitat suitability. This is significant because bridle shiners receive protection or concern status in thirteen states and two Canadian provinces: Limited data show that bridle shiners ...

Background In water lily (Nymphaea) hybrid breeding, breeders often encounter non-viable seeds, which make it difficult to transfer desired or targeted genes of different Nymphaea germplasm.

ABSTRACT Modern studies show that soil erosion results in a loss of ecosystem function, particularly fertility, and is a cause of declining agricultural yields. However, despite the well‐attested high rates of soil erosion across Roman and medieval Europe there appears to have been little or no soil‐associated decline in agricultural production—the ...

Evidence for Asian Swamp Eels as an Emerging Threat to Everglades Amphibians
ABSTRACT As amphibian populations around the globe continue to shrink and suffer enigmatic declines, it is critical to use systematic studies to isolate causes and provide management targets for key environmental variables. We sampled the amphibian community at 30 sites dispersed across four large regions of the Everglades (FL, USA).

Since the mid‐20th century, mean site‐level macrophyte richness declined by more than a quarter across 119 standing waters of various types in northwest Germany. Within protected areas, richness was consistently higher but declined at similar rates. Communities shifted towards eutrophic‐hypertrophic indicators, underscoring the need for catchment‐wide ...
