Strong diel variation in the activity of insect taxa sampled by Malaise traps
Malaise traps sampled different communities during mornings (06:00–12:00), afternoons (12:00–16:00), evenings (18:00–22:00), and nights (22:00–06:00), highlighting the difference in diel rhythm between taxa. The highest diversity and abundance of insects were found during afternoons, the lowest diversity during night, and the lowest abundance during ...

Variation in Zn, C, and N isotope ratios in three stream insects
Total Zn concentrations and Zn isotope ratios were measured, using multicollector inductively coupled plasma (ICP)-mass spectrometry (MS), in three species of aquatic insects collected from a stream in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada.

ABSTRACT Headwaters often contribute disproportionately to network‐scale benthic biodiversity as differences in community composition between separate headwater streams (β‐diversity) can be high although local (α) diversity may be low. Most research on stream β‐diversity has adopted a spatial perspective, whereas temporal β‐diversity remains largely ...

ABSTRACT Aim Quaternary climatic oscillations have profoundly shaped the genetic structure and geographic distributions of alpine biotas. Understanding how cold‐adapted taxa responded to past climatic shifts is essential for unravelling the processes shaping mountain biodiversity, yet cold‐adapted taxa may have followed divergent refugial histories. We

The Balkan Peninsula is considered to be a biodiversity hotspot, hosting a particularly high number of endemic species. Despite increased faunistic research in recent decades many areas remain poorly investigated, particularly regarding the aquatic ...

The flow of non‐living resources between autotrophic and heterotrophic ecosystems can impact their ecosystem function. However, ecosystem size is similarly known to influence ecological properties and it is uncertain how the size of coupled ecosystems mediates the effect of resource flows.

ABSTRACT The piscicide antimycin has been used as an effective fish toxicant to eradicate nuisance fishes because it is not as detectable by fish as other chemical piscicides. We evaluated the effects of antimycin and its detoxicant, potassium permanganate, on periphyton and benthic macroinvertebrates during a brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis ...

Urban streams have been the focus of much research in recent years, but many questions about the mechanisms driving the urban stream syndrome remain unanswered.
