Dietary overlap and selectivity among mountain steppe river fish in the United States and Mongolia. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol, 2023
The introduction of nonnative species can influence the dietary characteristics of native species. We compared fishes in rivers with and without the presence of nonnative species to compare the diets of native species. We found nonnative species had more generalist diets and greater dietary overlaps compared to native species. Abstract Lotic systems in

Hydrological Connectivity and Local Environment Alternately Drive Spatial Structure of Floodplain Aquatic Community Across Seasons. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Our study shows that the landscape‐scale environmental gradient represented as ecotone and as local environmental factors can alternately determine the spatial structures of the floodplain biota across seasons. The study highlights the understudied yet important linkages of spatial and temporal biotic assemblages and advance understanding of ecology ...

Anticipating where are unknown aquatic insects in Europe to improve biodiversity conservation

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 29, Issue 8, Page 1021-1034, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim Understanding biodiversity patterns is crucial for prioritizing future conservation efforts and reducing the current rates of biodiversity loss. However, a large proportion of species remain undescribed (i.e. unknown biodiversity), hindering our ability to conduct this task.

Permian parallelisms: Reanalysis of †Tshekardocoleidae sheds light on the earliest evolution of the Coleoptera

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 69-96, January 2023., 2023
A reevaluation of †Tshecardocoleidae revealed that crucial character transformations took place in the Permian. Phylogenetic analyses show that Coleoptera excluding †Tshecardocoleidae are strongly supported as a clade (Mesocoleoptera). Taxon exclusion experiments demonstrate that †Tshecardocoleidae are crucial for understanding the early evolution of ...

Development of a flow‐sensitive macroinvertebrate index for Australian rivers

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 38, Issue 5, Page 846-862, June 2022., 2022
Abstract Hydrologically sensitive macroinvertebrate indices have been developed in Europe, the Americas and New Zealand to serve many purposes such as monitoring ecological responses to drought, flow regulation, water extraction and the provision of environmental flows.

Chironomid‐inferred summer temperature development during the late Rissian glacial, Eemian interglacial and earliest Würmian glacial at Füramoos, southern Germany

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 496-516, April 2022., 2022
We present a new chironomid record from southern Germany that covers the mid‐Eemian to the end of the first Würmian stadial (roughly 125‐105 ka) and also parts of the late Rissian glaciation and early Brörup interstadial of the early Würmian glaciation.
