Feeding Habits of Wisconsin's Predominant Lotic Plecoptera, Ephemeroptera, and Trichoptera
Feeding habits of nymphs or larvae of 101 species of Plecoptera, Ephemeroptera, and Trichoptera collected from Wisconsin's streams were determined by examining foregut contents.

Postglacial Echoes: Parasite Genomics Uncover Environmental Changes in Postglacial European Lakes
ABSTRACT Postglacial environmental changes have influenced biodiversity and species evolution, yet the genomic and demographic responses of parasites remain underexplored. This study investigates the population genetics and demographic history of the flatworm Phyllodistomum umblae, a generalist trematode at the definitive host level infecting Coregonus

Stoneflies (Plecoptera) of Nevada [PDF]
Abstract. Stoneflies (Plecoptera) are a dominant group in running freshwaters. We report 104 stonefly species from Nevada. The fauna contains species with Sierra Nevada—Cascade range affinities, few of which penetrate far eastward, and Rocky Mountain species extending to western Nevada.

The protogynous flowers of Isotrema manshuriense exhibit multimodal cues, resembling both generalized food sources and fly oviposition sites, with these cues varying across sexual phases. Abstract The genus Aristolochia is renowned for its kettle‐like trap flowers that temporarily retain visiting insects, primarily using trapping trichomes.

Widespread deforestation has impacted biodiversity patterns globally, but the potential for forest plantations to restore biodiversity remains unclear. Here we used environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis to compare freshwater insect assemblages between native and exotic forests in New Zealand, a region that has experienced heavy deforestation over recent ...

The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Nemoura nankinensis (Plecoptera: Nemouridae) was sequenced as the first reported mitogenome from the family Nemouridae. The N. nankinensis mitogenome was the longest (16,602 bp) among reported plecopteran

Restoration using flow deflectors: a question of fine‐scale spatial layout in headwater stream beds
Current European Union objectives for 2030 aim to restore ecosystems to halt biodiversity loss. Here, we studied the consequences of headwater stream restoration by placing large wood in the streambed to act as flow deflectors. We hypothesized that these flow deflectors would create a fine‐scale spatial arrangement of habitats, fostering a diverse and ...

Evolutionary implications of a deep‐time perspective on insect pollination
ABSTRACT Plant pollination by insects represents one of the most transformative and iconic ecological relationships in the natural world. Despite tens of thousands of papers, as well as numerous books, on pollination biology published over the past 200 years, most studies focused on the fossil record of pollinating insects have only been published in ...

‘Rolling’ stoneflies (Insecta: Plecoptera) from mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber
This contribution describes seven new species of fossil stoneflies from Cretaceous Burmese amber, all of which are dedicated to present and past members of the Rolling Stones. Two species—Petroperla mickjaggeri gen. nov. sp. nov.

ABSTRACT River managers are beginning to adopt natural capital approaches in practice. However, while it is crucial for river management, the link between river asset condition and the flow of ecosystem services is poorly understood. In this study, we conducted a Quick Scoping Review (QSR) of the research into river asset condition and ecosystem ...
