Abstract:
Physical environment of streams present many challenging factors to the organisms living under its influence. Water speed, one of the most important factors affecting such environments, has local influence on substrata, temperature, and oxygen levels. It acts determining species distributions and morphological and behavioral adaptations of organisms. The aim of this study was to assess the relative size of gills of Cloeodes jaragua on two mesohabitats: lentic environment (river dam) and lotic environment (fast flowing area of a stream) in Parque Nacional da Serra dos Órgãos (RJ, Brazil).

The influence of contrasting lentic and lotic hydrological environments on the morphology of members of the Galaxias vulgaris species complex was examined. Morphological variation between habitat types was investigated by comparison of populations of Galaxias brevipinnis (inferred ancestor), Galaxias gollumoides (roundhead morphotype) and Galaxias vulgaris (flathead morphotype). Interspecific convergence and intraspecific divergence of morphological characters were demonstrated, representing general shifts in morphology towards a common functional form in particular hydrological environments.

Strontium : calcium (Sr : Ca) ratios were measured in sagittal otoliths of silverside (Odontesthes bonariensis) from a freshwater–marine environment (Paraná River Delta and Río de la Plata River, South America) in order to understand its seasonal movements. Conductivity was recorded and the water Sr : Ca ratio was determined by inductively coupled plasma–atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). A calibration curve of water Sr : Ca ratio versus otolith Sr : Ca ratio from four isolated lentic water bodies was made to predict silverside displacements in the lower section of the Plata Basin during

Abstract:
ABSTRACTZygonix iris is widespread in tropical Asia, and larvae are sprawlers/clingers on rock surfaces in fast-flowing streams and rivers. In the Lam Tsuen River, Hong Kong, this species is univoltine; emergence occurs prior to the summer monsoon and larval recruitment during the wet season. Studies on larval dietary composition in four habitats indicated that Z. iris is a generalist predator, consuming epibenthic prey taxa in proportion to their abundance in the environment. Larval Chironomidae (Diptera) and Baetis (Ephemeroptera) were the commonest food items at all sites and there was litt

The gut lumen of immature aquatic insects is colonized by a unique community of protistan and fungal organisms, collectively called trichomycetes. The species diversity of fungal trichomycetes appears to be high, with new taxa published regularly. Bactromyces fluminalis and Laculus insecticola , species belonging to two new genera of fungal trichomycetes, are described from stonefly and mayfly nymphs, respectively. Bactromyces fluminalis was collected from a stream habitat in Long Lake Provincial Park, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, while Laculus insecticola was found in a lentic environment (G

While aquatic environments have long been thought to be more moderate environments than their terrestrial cousins, environmental data demonstrate that for some systems this is not so. Numerous important environmental parameters can fluctuate dramatically, notably dissolved oxygen, turbidity and temperature. The roles of dissolved oxygen and turbidity on predator–prey interactions have been discussed in detail elsewhere within this issue and will be considered only briefly here. Here, we will focus primarily on the role of temperature and its potential impact upon predator–prey interactions. Tw

Functional diversity approaches have been an efficient tool in gaining a better understanding of how environmental conditions selected species in a given environment and how they share resources, linking ecological processes to biodiversity patterns. Although most of the protist ciliates are not highly specialized, functional feeding groups with species which ingest similar food can be identified. Thus, this study aimed to compare the abundance of different Functional Feeding Groups (FFG) of ciliates in environments with different hydrodynamic conditions (lotic and lentic) in different hydrolo

Three populations of brook trout, Salvelinus fontinalis, established in streams and reservoirs in the Jizersk? Mountains, Czech Republic, were studied between 1995 and 2006. The maximum age was usually 3+ to 4+, but the age 7+ was also recorded. The inflows of all reservoirs are populated mostly by 0+ to 2+ brook trout, while older specimens live in a lentic environment, migrating to lotic habitats only to spawn. The density of brook trout in streams ranged from 8 to 95 individuals per 100 m2 during spring and summer, while that for reservoirs ranged between 31 and 290 individuals per ha. A st

Alterations in aquatic systems and changes in water levels, whether due to rains or dam-mediated control can cause changes in community structure, forcing the community to readjust to the new environment. This study tested the hypothesis that there is an increase in the richness and abundance of aquatic insects during the rainy season in the Serra da Mesa Reservoir, with the premise that increasing the reservoir level provides greater external material input and habitat diversity, and, therefore, conditions that promote colonization by more species.

However, the cost of eDNA detection using these approaches can be quite high and requires instruments that are not usually installed in ecology laboratories.
