Effect of spatial variation on salinity tolerance of macroinvertebrates in Eastern Australia and implications for ecosystem protection trigger values [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Salinisation of freshwater has been identified as a serious environmental issue in Australia and around the world. Protective concentrations (trigger values) for salinity can be used to manage salinity impacts, though require locally relevant salinity ...

When One Global Invasion Hides Another—Cryptic Interspecific Invasion in Freshwater Gastropods

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Cryptic invasions are an understudied phenomenon among species invasions, especially in freshwater invertebrates. We study the gastropod family Physidae, including the global invaders Physella acuta and several enigmatic Stenophysa species, their phylogenetic relationships and the presence of native species among African Physidae. We infer

Benthic and interstitial habitats of a lentic spring as invertebrate refuges during supra-seasonal drought [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Instream refuges are places where invertebrates persist during disturbances due to reduced adverse impacts. During droughts, low flows may be accompanied by elevated temperatures, and potential refuges including subsurface sediments and spring-fed ...

A dataset of individual wet weights of benthic macroinvertebrates

open access: yesLimnology 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

Riding the wetland wave: Can ducks locate macroinvertebrate resources across the breeding season?

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2024.
Nektonic macroinvertebrate density varies across wetland types and over time during the waterfowl breeding season, with basin wetlands harboring the highest density and the most stable resources. Waterfowl pairs are able to track these densities and are found in the greatest numbers in the wetlands with the highest food density during the breeding ...

Reconnecting a stream channel to its floodplain: implications for benthic diatoms and macroinvertebrate trophic structure

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 4, May 2024.
Streams systems draining upland landscapes provide valuable ecosystem services, but they are vulnerable to incision and channelization caused by anthropogenic disturbance. Restoring a degraded stream to its pre‐disturbance condition by reconnecting the channel to its historical floodplain aims to recover lost hydro‐morphological processes and functions.
