A 'polarisation sun‐dial'dictates the optimal time of day for dispersal by flying aquatic insects
Daily changes in the flight activity of aquatic insects have been investigated in only a few
water beetles and bugs. The diel flight periodicity of aquatic insects and the environmental …

Spatial and temporal patterns of pioneer macrofauna in recently created ponds: taxonomic and functional approaches
Man-made ponds are often created to compensate for the loss and degradation of wetlands,
but little is known about the processes taking place in these artificial environments …

When do beetles and bugs fly? A unified scheme for describing seasonal flight behaviour of highly dispersing primary aquatic insects
Abstract Changes of seasonal dispersal flight were investigated based on a wide spectrum
of aquatic Heteroptera and Coleoptera species. We hypothesized that species or groups of …

Diel flight behaviour and dispersal patterns of aquatic Coleoptera and Heteroptera species with special emphasis on the importance of seasons
Dispersal flight is the most important and almost the only way for primary aquatic insects to
find new water habitats. During a 30-week-long project, we monitored the flight dispersal …

Polarization vision of aquatic insects
In this chapter we show that primary aquatic insects fly predominantly in mid-morning, and/or
around noon and/or at nightfall. We describe the different types of their diurnal flight activity …

Seasonal and diel dispersal activity characteristics of Sigara lateralis (Leach, 1817) (Heteroptera: Corixidae) with special emphasis on possible environmental factors …
Both the daily and the seasonal dispersal dynamics of the true water bug, Sigara lateralis
(Leach, 1817) were studied in 2000 and 2005 under various environmental circumstances …

Large-and small-regional-scale variables interact in the dispersal patterns of aquatic macroinvertebrates from temporary ponds
D Cunillera-Montcusí, D Boix, J Sala, J Compte… - Aquatic Ecology, 2020 - Springer
Dispersal is one of the main determinants of metacommunity assembly, yet its interaction
with the landscape network structure has not been fully elucidated. Large-scale regional …

Seasonality and weather conditions jointly drive flight activity patterns of aquatic and terrestrial chironomids
Background Chironomids, a major invertebrate taxon in many standing freshwaters, rely on
adult flight to reach new suitable sites, yet the impact of weather conditions on their flight …

Environmental influence on flight activity and arrival patterns of aerial colonizers of temporary ponds
Arrival of aerial insect colonizers was studied (from April to July) using traps (artificial pools)
installed adjacent to two temporary ponds in southern Ontario, Canada. The two ponds …
