Bromeliad phytotelmata: the first scientometric study
Limnetica, 2023 Some representatives of this family have the ability to form phytotelma environments through the accumulation of water and organic matter, serving as substrate and food for a variety of organisms. Here, a scientometric analysis was carried out to show trends in scientific work on bromeliad phytotelmata and the importance of these microcosms for the ...

Florivory by the occupants of phytotelmata in flower parts can decrease host plant fecundity. [PDF]
Curr Zool, 2022 Abstract Some types of plant accumulate liquid in their inflorescences creating phytotelmata. These environments protect the flowers against florivory, although they may be colonized by aquatic or semi-aquatic florivorous insect larvae, whose effects on the fitness of the plants remain unclear.

Crustacea in phytotelmata: a global overview [PDF]
Journal of Crustacean Biology, 2013 Phytotelmata, or plant-held water bodies, occur all over the world and include bromeliads, pitcher plants and tree holes. Largely ignored, these habitats can house surprisingly diverse aquatic invertebrate communities. To complement existing overviews of insect-dominated phytotelm inquilines, we assembled information on aquatic Crustacea in ...

Mosquito community structure in phytotelmata from a South American temperate wetland [PDF]
Journal of Vector Ecology, 2011 Los fitotelmatas, o aguas en poder de las plantas, se consideran buenos sistemas modelo para el estudio de la ecología comunitaria. La fauna de estos hábitats naturales en contenedores, particularmente los mosquitos, se ha investigado ampliamente en las regiones tropicales, pero se sabe poco sobre ellos en las zonas templadas de América del Sur ...

Ants mediate the structure of phytotelm communities in an ant-garden bromeliad [PDF]
, 2010 The main theories explaining the biological diversity of rain forests often confer a limited understanding of the contribution of interspecific interactions to the observed patterns.

Where the Immatures of Triassic Diptera Developed
Diversity, 2023 Immature Diptera are more diverse and abundant in fresh water than any other insect order. The question arises whether the earliest dipterans, known from the Upper Buntsandstein of Europe (early Anisian, Middle Triassic), already developed in water and ...
