- Abstract:
- ... With more than 1,100,000 described species, the insects are the most diverse clade of extant animals, far before all other groups. Nevertheless, they undergo a drastic decrease of their populations, due to the sixth extinction of human origin. Thus it is important to define when and how they became so diverse and if they were impacted by the major crises of biodiversity in the deep past to estimat ...

A long hidden chydorid (Chydoridae, Cladocera) taxon, first found as fossil specimens and recently redefined as Rhynchotalona latens (Sarmaja-Korjonen et al., Hydrobiologia 436: 165–169, 2000) is investigated for its biogeography and ecology. Late Holocene sediment sequence from Lake Sylvilampi, NE Finnish Lapland, and R. latens spatial distribution in relation to limno-climatic attributes in Finl ...

- Abstract:
- ... Native saproxylic (deadwood dependent) beetle species living in exotic forest plantations may provide environmental services for forestry companies, but their sensitivity to forest management makes them difficult to conserve. Here, we used Structural Equation Models (SEM) to assess the role of the endemic beetle Acanthinodera cumingii in native forest and exotic pine plantations as an ecosystem en ...

- Abstract:

A systematic literature review was undertaken to understand the state and relationship between habitat types and biodiversity in the open coastal Lake Nokoué and to analyse the research gaps towards an efficient management of this ecosystem. Habitat types in Lake Nokoué have been profoundly impacted by the urbanisation around the lake. Kilometres of riparian habitat including mangrove vegetation w ...

- Abstract:
- ... The Metabolic Theory of Ecology (MTE) posits that metabolic rate controls ecological processes, such as the rate of resource uptake, from the individual‐ to the ecosystem‐scale. Metabolic rate has been found empirically to be an exponential function of whole organism body mass. We test a fundamental assumption of MTE, whether resource uptake scales to metabolism, by examining detritivores accessin ...

This study tested whether amphipods (Crangonyx spp.), traditionally thought to be detritivores, prey on Northern Red-legged Frog (Rana aurora) embryos at the Humboldt Bay National Wildlife Refuge in California (HBNWR). Following observations that amphipods were associated with the disappearance of frog embryos, we performed experiments in which embryos were placed in 1 of 4 treatments: chambers op ...

Although several studies have uncovered the importance of engineering environments, few studies have evaluated the effect of pioneering plants as ecosystem engineers, especially in tropical environments. When dead, Cecropia leaves become architecturally complex, acquiring a tridimensional shape due to des ...

Artificial lighting at night (ALAN) is a global phenomenon that can be detrimental to organisms at individual and population levels, yet potential consequences for communities and ecosystem functions are less resolved. Riparian systems may be particularly vulnerable to ALAN. We investigated the impacts of ALAN on invertebrate community composition and food web characteristics for linked aquatic‐te ...

However, most studies usually evaluate structural and species composition parameters, with less emphasis on ecological processes and functioning. The main objective of this study is to use an integrated approach that considers structura ...

- Abstract:
- ... In crop production there are two main limiting factors - pollination and pest damage. Effective pollination results in increased quantity and quality of seed or fruit crops. One of the important group of pollinators are Syrphidae adults commonly visiting flowers as pollen and nectar sources however they are still not been practically used in crop production. Larvae of predatory species are among t ...

- Abstract:

To assess their value for biodiversity, we compared beetle communities among three anthropogenic land use types, namely spruce plantations, Christmas tree plantations and maize fields. These three land use types are all characterised by high phytobiomass and vertical pl ...

- Abstract:
- ... Several dozen fish species have been introduced into Neotropical waters, causing significant biotic changes that include deterministic predation interactions with ecosystem effects. In general, reservoirs are preferred over lakes as places for stocking policies, due to their artificial aspect, consequently promoting fish introductions. In a meta‐analytic approach, we compared the biomass of plankt ...

- Abstract:
- ... Climate change is driving a redistribution of species and the reconfiguration of ecological communities at a global scale. Persistent warming in many regions has caused species to extend their geographical ranges into new habitats, with thermally tolerant species often becoming competitively dominant over species with colder affinities. Although these climate‐driven changes in species abundance an ...

- Abstract:
- ... Understanding how different food resources sustain stream food webs is fundamental towards increasing our knowledge on trophic structure and energy flow pathways in fluvial ecosystems. Food webs in small mountain streams are sustained by autochthonous (instream primary production) and allochthonous (inputs from the terrestrial ecosystem) organic resources, with their relative importance highly dep ...
