Aspects of the taxonomy, ecology and hydrodynamics of the Australian Psephenidae (Coleoptera)
, 1982 Psephenid larvae (waterpennies) are well known members of the freshwater benthos, possessing a characteristic dorso-ventrally flattened shield. They are found clinging to rocks in rivers and streams that experience fast and turbulent flow regimes for at least part of the year.

Geography, taxonomy, and ecological guild: Factors impacting freshwater macroinvertebrate gut microbiomes. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2022 Model predictions for mean Bray–Curtis distances for stream locations, macroinvertebrate family, genus, and functional feeding group are assessed. The densities show the posterior distributions of Bray–Curtis distances for each level of stream, family, genus, and functional feeding group. The dot and error bars under each density show the median and 95%

First South Korean Record of Beetle Suborder Myxophaga Extends Its Documented Range in Continental East Asia. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe report Sphaerius sp. from South Korea, representing the first record of Myxophaga from the Korean Peninsula and extending its known continental East Asian range northeastward. SEM‐based morphology and COI barcode data support its placement in Sphaerius.

Importance of Flow Metrics on Modeling Macroinvertebrate Community in Dammed Rivers: An Approach With Optimized Gradient Boosting. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study developed catchment‐scale habitat models of macroinvertebrate community with predictor variables that characterize dam impacts based on either simple geographical information system data or physically simulated flow data using a distributed hydrological model.

Riparian Bryophytes: An Overlooked Yet Important Habitat for Aquatic Macroinvertebrates in Interior Pacific Northwest (USA) Salmonid-Bearing Streams. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe investigated riparian bryophytes as habitat for aquatic invertebrates in an interior Pacific Northwest (PNW) salmonid stream system. Our results demonstrate that bryophytes are highly productive habitat for aquatic invertebrates in interior Pacific Northwest salmonid streams.

Integrating freshwater biodiversity data sources: Key challenges and opportunities
Freshwater Biology, Volume 68, Issue 9, Page 1479-1488, September 2023., 2023 Abstract In order to better quantify spatial and temporal patterns in freshwater biodiversity, and potential underlying drivers of change, we must utilise the increasingly broad range of data available on freshwater ecosystems. Statistical advances in the field of integrated modelling provide new opportunities to further our understanding through the ...
