iNaturalist and Structured Mammal Surveys Reflect Similar Species Richness but Capture Different Species Pools Across the United States. [PDF]
Ecol EvoliNaturalist data is widely used in ecology, but is known to contain spatial and taxa‐specific biases. We compared species richness and species pools using data from iNaturalist and structured surveys (i.e., camera traps and acoustic bat surveys) across the United States. We found that iNaturalist and structured surveys generally report similar richness,

First record of Odonata nymphs from Karun River, south-west Iran [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Animal Biosystematics, 2014 Odonata fauna is poorly known in Iran and most of the previous studies deal with northern parts of the country, studying adult specimens. We sampled Karun River for aquatic insects in the city of Ahvaz in south-west of Iran during 2009–2011. As a result,

Differing Impacts of Livestock Farming and Ranching on Aquatic Insect Biodiversity: A Global Meta-Analysis. [PDF]
Glob Chang BiolThis meta‐analysis investigates the impact of livestock farming and ranching on the abundance and richness of major aquatic insect orders. Livestock farming significantly reduced the richness of Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera. However, livestock farming did not significantly impact abundance, suggesting finite shifts in aquatic insect ...
