Partitioning and drivers of aquatic insect beta diversity in mountain streams
(2021-01-01)
In recent years, interest in considering multiple facets of diversity has grown among community ecologists. Biological communities are complex systems, and exploring multiple facets can help reveal the main processes that ...
Subtropical streams harbour higher genus richness and lower abundance of insects compared to boreal streams, but scale matters
(2018-09-01)
Aim: Biological diversity typically varies between climatically different regions, and regions closer to the equator often support higher numbers of taxa than those closer to the poles. However, these trends have been ...
The mechanism of plant gall induction by insects: revealing clues, facts, and consequences in a cross-kingdom complex interaction
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2019)
Beta diversity of stream insects differs between boreal and subtropical regions, but land use does not generally cause biotic homogenization
(2021-03-01)
Previous studies have found mixed results regarding the relationship between beta diversity and latitude. In addition, by influencing local environmental heterogeneity, land use maymodify spatial taxonomic and functional ...
Should phylogenetic and functional diversity metrics compose macroinvertebrate multimetric indices for stream biomonitoring?
(Springer, 2015-02-01)
The idea behind multimetric indices is to integrate information from several metrics to provide a general classification of water bodies without losing the particularities of each individual metric. Historically, multimetric ...
