Freezing and chemical preservatives alter the stable isotope values of carbon and nitrogen of the Asiatic clam (Corbicula fluminea) [PDF]
We tested the impacts of most common sample preservation methods used for aquatic sample materials on the stable isotope ratios of carbon and nitrogen in clams, a typical baseline indicator organism for many aquatic food web studies utilising stable ...

Landscape‐Mediated Effects of Climate Change on Metacommunities Inhabiting Mediterranean Seagrass
ABSTRACT Aim Climate change affects dramatically biogenic habitats by altering the geographic distribution of the foundational species and the structure of landscapes they form. As a consequence, the associated biotic communities could experience habitat loss and fragmentation.

The changes in the profundal benthos during the extremely low water level in the deep lake Arakhley (Siberia) [PDF]
Data on the impact of long-term water level fluctuations on benthic invertebrate communities of the deep lakes in Siberia are scarce due to the rarity of such events and the short history of observations. The studies of the dynamics of zoobenthos and the

ABSTRACT Resource heterogeneity is a widespread phenomenon, as resources are rarely spaced evenly across a landscape. Variation in resource density and distribution can have a myriad of behavioural, ecological, and evolutionary consequences for populations, yet clarifying these effects is still challenging.

StrataSeq: A Workflow for Rapid Development of Molecular Databases for Hard‐To‐Identify Species
Biodiversity loss calls for better monitoring of small, species‐rich taxa, such as soil invertebrates, but traditional methods are limited due to complex morphology and lack of expertise. DNA‐based approaches offer a solution, but their effectiveness depends on incomplete molecular reference databases.

First occurrence of the Ponto-Caspian amphipod Echinogammarus trichiatus (Martynov, 1932) (Crustacea: Gammaridae) in Belgium [PDF]
The Ponto-Caspian amphipod species Echinogammarus trichiatus (Martynov, 1932) was found in Belgium for the first time in June 2009 at two different locations in an artificial lake bordered by two large canals.

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Coccomyxa sp. on the survival, nutritional profile, pigments and digestive enzyme activities of Mystus gulio. A 75‐day feeding trial was performed during which the fish fry were fed with microalgae as a partial replacement for other nutritional components.

Status and historical changes in the fish community in Erhai Lake [PDF]
Erhai Lake is the second largest freshwater lake on the Yunnan Plateau, Southwest China. In recent decades, a number of exotic fish species have been introduced into the lake and the fish community has changed considerably. We evaluated the status of the
