Translocating Intact Assemblages to Degraded Sites to Accelerate Ecological Recovery

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.
Estuarine ecosystems are threatened by anthropogenic pressures such as climate change, coastal development, and increased nutrient and sediment inputs. These pressures are deteriorating ecological health and threatening the functioning and services that estuarine ecosystems provide.

Resilience of riparian spiders to floods: evidence from a mesocosm study

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 393-403, March 2026.
Mesocosm experiment to assess the impact of flood duration on flood‐naïve riparian spider communities. In May, spider richness decreased with flood duration, while in June, flood duration increased abundance, richness and promoted wetland specialists. Flood‐naïve riparian spiders unexpectedly appear highly resilient to flooding.

Hard Rock Buffet: Chemosynthetic Carbon Use and Environmental Trophic Structuring of Carbonate‐Associated Macrofauna at Southern California Methane Seeps

open access: yesMarine Ecology, Volume 47, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Diverse invertebrate communities inhabiting carbonate rocks at methane seeps may rely on a mix of local chemosynthetic production and sinking photosynthetic organic matter, with relative importance shaped by environmental conditions. We investigate the contribution of chemosynthetic carbon to macrofaunal diets at six Southern California ...

Sorting of Glossiphonia complanata (Linnaeus, 1758) (Rhynchobdellida: Glossiphoniidae) from three aquatic plants in Tigris River within Baghdad city

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Petroleum, 2017
The present study shows that the reason for isolation of Glossiphonia complanata from these aquatic plants was firstly founding of aquatic oligochaeta, snails and chironomidae that settled on aquatic plants as food.

Is similar the distribution of Chironomidae (Diptera) and Oligochaeta (Annelida, Clitellata) in a river and a lateral fluvial area?

open access: yesActa Limnologica Brasiliensia, 2017
Numerous factors may affect the pattern of distribution of benthic fauna in a river mouth region and, among the macroinvertebrates, Chironomidae and Oligochaeta are the most abundant groups and most tolerant to environmental changes. Aim The aim of this
