We here review the current knowledge on the trophic ecology of stoneflies, an aquatic insect
group of substantial ecological importance in lotic systems. We provide information on the …

For cryptic species, designing and implementing appropriate and effective conservation
strategies is often difficult due to a lack of information about their ecology and biology …

Providing taxonomically precise dietary characterisations for freshwater fish species is
critical for gaining a deeper understanding of the trophic dynamics present in freshwater …

Terrestrial invertebrates have been reported to be positively selected by stream salmonids.
We assessed the importance of terrestrial and aquatic invertebrates to salmonid diets in 25 …

There is growing interest in the delineation of feeding patterns in animals, but little is known
about the interaction of multiple explanatory factors across broad geographical scales. The …

Subsidies of energy and material from the riparian zone have large impacts on recipient
stream habitats. Human-induced changes, such as deforestation, may profoundly affect …

The brown trout (Salmo trutta) is a species of Eurasian origin, but at has become naturalized
in many other parts of the world. It has an outstanding socio-economic importance, both in …

Cannibalism among predators is a key intraspecific interaction affecting their density and
foraging behavior, eventually modifying the strength of predation on heterospecific prey …

Nutrient enrichment of rivers and lakes has been increasing rapidly over the past few
decades, primarily because of agricultural intensification. Although nutrient enrichment is …
