Inconsistent effects of P enrichment and predator presence on food‐web dynamics in a bromeliad system

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 3, March 2026.
Food webs consist of trophic interactions of variable strength. However, it remains challenging to predict how changes in environmental conditions, such as nutrient enrichment, can affect these interactions. In this paper, we propose to integrate food web theory with ecological stoichiometry, which predicts how elemental ratios affect trophic ...

Forest Loss Influences Biomass Distribution Across Trophic Groups of Amazonian Stream Insects

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Changes in resource availability caused by deforestation can negatively impact freshwater ecosystems, with implications for trophic chains. We investigated both the direct and indirect effects of forest cover and allochthonous resource availability on the biomass distribution of larvae of aquatic insects (Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, Trichoptera

Observations on the Nesting of \u3ci\u3eCrabro Tenuis\u3c/i\u3e (Hymenoptera: Sphecidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Three nests of Crabro tenuis were studied during June 1971-1972 in Oswego County, New York. Females constructed shallow but lengthy, multicelled nests in sand with the cells being built in clusters, sometimes in series. Females plugged the entrances with

Integrating eDNA and community science to monitor urban Odonata diversity

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 84-92, January 2026.
Environmental DNA captured rare and underrepresented taxa often missed by community science observations. Community science revealed adult‐stage observations across a broader temporal window. Integrating both methods improved detection across life stages, seasons, and species prevalence.

Fish predation cues induce drifting and emergence in an experimental stream mesocosm system

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue S2, Page S364-S376, December 2025.
Abstract Predator–prey interactions are important drivers of adaptation in aquatic communities, shaping the behavior of invertebrates with cascading effects on community dynamics. Behavioral responses, such as moving with the downstream current (drift) or altering the timing of emergence, are strategies that reduce the risk of predator encounters ...
