Combining molecular datasets with strongly heterogeneous taxon coverage enlightens the peculiar biogeographic history of stoneflies (Insecta: Plecoptera)

, 2021
Extant members of the ancient insect order of stoneflies exhibit a disjunct, antitropical distribution, with one major lineage exclusively occurring in the Southern Hemisphere and the other, with few exceptions, on the Northern continents.

Ecosystem Services, Global Diversity, and Rate of Stonefly Species Descriptions (Insecta: Plecoptera)

Insects, 2019
Stoneflies (Insecta: Plecoptera) provide ecosystem services as indicators of water quality, as food for predators, as mediators of energy flow and nutrient cycling, and through cultural services related to recreation and artistic creativity.

The Feeding Ecology of Invasive Pink Salmon Juveniles in Northern Norwegian Rivers and Their Role as Prey to Native Salmonids

Ecology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 35, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Increasing numbers of invasive Pacific pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) are spawning in northern Norwegian rivers, leading to large numbers of juveniles migrating to coastal waters. This raises concerns about food competition with native salmonids in rivers, although details about the timing and intensity of pink salmon feeding and the ...

Geological processes shaping freshwater biodiversity: a synthesis of global evidence

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1568-1581, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent genomic data highlight the key roles of geological processes in shaping the diversification and biogeography of freshwater lineages. Specifically, physical processes such as tectonic uplift, erosion, glaciation, lake formation, and sea‐level fluctuation contribute extensively to the evolution of biotic diversity within and among ...

Community structure, life histories and secondary production of stoneflies in two small mountain streams with different degree of forest cover

Journal of Limnology, 2015
Our study examines community structure and nymphal biology (life cycles and secondary production) of stoneflies in two adjacent mountain streams with different degree of forest cover in the Prosiečanka River Basin (Chočské Vrchy Mts., West Carpathians ...

Efficacy of Clearflow Treatment Technologies in the Treatment of Mining Effluent: Field‐Level Testing at a Coal Mine

Environmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 4, Summer 2026.
ABSTRACT Mining waste water characteristically contains high concentrations of suspended solids, total metals, and nutrients. These can be treated with flocculants within settling ponds to speed up the clarification of water by settling out the suspended solids.

At last, a Pennsylvanian stem-stonefly (Plecoptera) discovered

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2011
Background Stem-relatives of many winged insect orders have been identified among Pennsylvanian fossils (Carboniferous Period). Owing to their presumed 'basal' position in insect phylogeny, stoneflies were expected to occur at this period.
