Today, decisions regarding the management and conservation of populations are often
informed to some degree by population genetics. A fundamental measure sought by …

The 'Field of Dreams Hypothesis' states 'if we build it, they will come', referring to the
assumption that if habitats are restored, species will recolonise them. However, the ability of …

The widespread distribution of the freshwater shrimp Paratya australiensis in eastern
Australia suggests that populations of this species have been connected in the past …

Anchialine habitats, landlocked bodies of mixohaline water that fluctuate with the tides but
have no surface connection to the sea, are known from around the world. Many anchialine …

Aim To infer the phylogenetic relationships within the freshwater shrimp genus Paratya
Miers, 1882 (Atyidae) and to use these data to answer biogeographical questions about the …

Shrimp of the family Atyidae are important members of nearly all tropical (and most
temperate) fresh and brackish water ecosystems in the world. To date, a complete …

In 1993, as part of another study, we translocated freshwater shrimp (Paratya australiensis)
between pools from two different subcatchments within the same drainage system in …

Populations of a number of sub‐tropical stream insect species have been found to show
unexpected patterns of genetic variation, with more differences between samples from the …

Aim To infer phylogenetic relationships among five species of the cave‐adapted shrimp
genus Typhlatya in order to test competing hypotheses of dispersal and colonization of the …

This chapter synthesizes data from 41 studies on 32 species of stream insects in an attempt
to answer three questions: First, what is the major dispersal mechanism in aquatic insects, ie …
