Differential responses of coolwater fishes to a whole‐lake reduction of a warmwater thermal guild
Abstract Climate change is transforming the ecology of lakes at a rapid pace, shifting some lakes toward warmwater‐dominant habitats. As a result, warmwater fishes are increasingly becoming more prevalent in lakes where they already existed, altering the patterning and strength of species interactions. Understanding shifting species interactions (e.g.,

Zoobenthos of the Lednické rybníky ponds
Qualitative and quantitative composition of macrozoobenthos was studied on the lednické rybníky ponds. Altogether 299 taxa of benthic macroinvertebrates were determined. The values of macrozoobenthos density and biomass ranged between 5–13 021 ind.m–2 and 0.02–79.6 g.m–2 respectively.

Differentiation between sympatric Astatotilapia calliptera ecotypes using dietary metabarcoding reveal presence of resource partitioning. ABSTRACT Sympatric speciation is defined as the formation of new species in the absence of geographic barriers, but the genomic and life history strategy mechanisms underpinning sympatric speciation are still far ...

ABSTRACT Fishes exhibit a range of feeding modes and strategies to forage in and on sand habitat. Here, we describe a novel feeding mode, whereby small juvenile baldchin groper, Choerodon rubescens (⁓65–100 mm TL), vigorously forward sweeps the benthos with a single pectoral fin to reveal small benthic prey and visually scans the immediate benthos on ...

Animal movements play a crucial role in ecosystem dynamics, regulating numerous functions from nutrient cycling to habitat coupling. Therefore, any factor modulating animal behavior (e.g. physiology and individual preferences in habitat choice) has the potential to influence ecosystem functioning.

Current knowledge of macrozoobenthos in lakes of the southern Ob-Irtys h interfluve
The paper presents a review of macrozoobenthos studies for lakes of the southern Ob-Irtysh interfluve (Western Siberia). Major periods of benthos studies differing in the content and goals were identified as 1) pre-revolutionary, 2) Soviet (pre-war), 3 ...
