Reassessing the indicator value of the EPT group in karst rivers under hydromorphological pressure

Water Supply
Hydromorphological degradation is one of the most common stressors to freshwater ecosystems nowadays. Rivers lose riparian vegetation, habitat heterogeneity, natural flow velocity, etc., due to hydromorphological alterations.

‘Rolling’ stoneflies (Insecta: Plecoptera) from mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber [PDF]

PeerJ, 2018
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.

Short‐term forest harvesting effects on emergence rates of aquatic insects from small streams treated with different riparian management

Journal of Applied Ecology, EarlyView.
These results highlight the detrimental impact of harvesting along stream ecosystems where riparian buffer width is insufficient and demonstrate that a 30‐m buffer may offer substantial protection, strengthening the scientific foundation for sustainable riparian forest management.

Microdistributions of stoneflies of the High Tatra montane streams

Open Life Sciences, 2015
Stonefly samples were collected from disturbed and undisturbed tributaries of the Tatra Mountains streams (the West Carpathians). In the autumn, at stable low discharge, the total density of stoneflies was significantly higher in the undisturbed streams.

Modeling nature‐based restoration potential across aquatic–terrestrial boundaries

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Today, few watersheds remain untouched by global change processes arising from climate warming, impoundments, channelization, water extraction, pollution, and urbanization. The need for restoration has resulted in a myriad of interventions, generally performed at small scales, which have limited measurable impact in restoring biodiversity and

Diversity and Community Structure of Stream Insects in a Minimally Disturbed Forested Watershed in Southern Illinois [PDF]

, 2018
The Lusk Creek Watershed, located in Pope County, IL, long has been rec- ognized as a high quality area of biological significance, but surveys of the stream macroinvertebrate fauna have been limited.

Molecular detection of pathogens in an equine fever diagnostic panel: 2019–2023

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background A common diagnostic approach for febrile horses is to test for a panel of potential pathogens. Panels are curated by expert opinion and vary between diagnostic laboratories. Objectives To report the results of a newly developed equine fever diagnostic panel (EFDP) between 2019 and 2023 and evaluate the frequency of positive results.

Do freshwater insect assemblages in exotic plantations resemble those from native forest? Evidence from environmental DNA

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
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 ...
