Taxonomy and Functional Traits Modulate the Environmental Niche Dimensions of Crustacean Zooplankton Communities in Submerged Aquatic Vegetation Beds

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Community ecologists now recognise the importance of simultaneously integrating spatial and environmental processes, together with functional traits and phylogeny to provide a more complete understanding of community responses to environmental conditions.

Responses of Rotifer Community to Microhabitat Changes Caused by Summer-Concentrated Rainfall in a Shallow Reservoir, South Korea

Diversity, 2020
Empirical studies suggest that the structural heterogeneity of aquatic ecosystem microhabitat is determined by the diversity and abundance of macrophytes.

Resilience of riparian spiders to floods: evidence from a mesocosm study

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 393-403, March 2026.
Mesocosm experiment to assess the impact of flood duration on flood‐naïve riparian spider communities. In May, spider richness decreased with flood duration, while in June, flood duration increased abundance, richness and promoted wetland specialists. Flood‐naïve riparian spiders unexpectedly appear highly resilient to flooding.

Morphological and biomechanical adaptations of larval mandibles in Trichoptera (Insecta)

Physiological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 85-114, March 2026.
Mandible morphology differs between predators and grazers: predators show pointed incisors, grazers sharp edges and setae. Mechanical properties depend on cuticle tanning, not elemental reinforcement. Functional mandible types reflect feeding strategies, with predators specialized for prey capture and grazers for scraping and collecting.

Effects of water regime on the growth of the submerged macrophyte Ceratophyllum demersum at different densities

Journal of Freshwater Ecology, 2018
To successfully restore deteriorated lake ecosystems, it is vital to identify influencing environmental factors that impact submerged macrophytes. Planting density and water regime are important factors for submerged macrophytes’ growth.

A MODIS-Based Novel Method to Distinguish Surface Cyanobacterial Scums and Aquatic Macrophytes in Lake Taihu

Remote Sensing, 2017
Satellite remote sensing can be an effective alternative for mapping cyanobacterial scums and aquatic macrophyte distribution over large areas compared with traditional ship’s site-specific samplings.

Influence of submerged macrophytes on phosphorus in a eutrophic reservoir in a semiarid region

, 2020
Phosphorus (P) is the main nutrient responsible for the harmful effects caused by the enrichment of aquatic systems, and submerged macrophytes play an important role in this process, since they can both remove and release this nutrient in environmental ...

Habitat architecture influencing microcrustaceans composition: a case study on freshwater Cladocera (Crustacea Branchiopoda)

Brazilian Journal of Biology
Environmental complexity is considered a key factor for diversity enhancement in aquatic ecosystems. Macrophyte stands are a major contributor for this complexity due to their differential architectures.

Trophic relationships between primary producers and associated fauna in a pristine Cerrado pond

Journal of Limnology, 2019
Ponds arising from groundwater in Cerrado of Central Brazil are oligotrophic but highly biodiverse environments. In this study, we used stable isotope ratios to test if there are variations in carbon and nitrogen acquisition by different primary food ...
