However, 14 of these have not been reported for several decades: some have probably been overlooked and will hopefully be rediscovered in the future, while others are probably extinct in Belgium. The latter species are especially potamal species that were restricted to the river Meuse and the downstream part of the river Ourthe. A few other species have been reported from the surrounding countries and may also be encountered in Belgium. An overview of the literature dealing with the Belgian stoneflies is given. In addition, three species are reported here for the frrst time for Belgium: Amphinemura borea/is (Morton, 1894), Nemouraflexuosa AUBERT, 1949 andLeuctra majorBRINCK, 1949. Keywords: aquatic insects; Amphinemura borealis; Belgium; Leuctra major; macroinvertebrates; Nemoura jlexuosa. 115 Samenvatt! ~!g In deze studie worden 52 soorten steenvliegen ge!neld ·:oor Belgie. Hiervan werden 14 soorten echter niet meer teruggevonden de laatste decennia. Enke!~ daarvan werden waarschijnlijk over het hoofd gezien en zullen hopelijk herontdekt worden j,, de :.)ekomst, enkele andere zijn waarschijnlijk uitgestorven in Belgie. Tot deze laatste groep beho;~n v.--.omamelijk soorten die gebonden zijn aan grote rivieren en die enkel voorkwamen in de Maas en b:t benedenstrooms gedeelte van de Ourthe. Daarnaast werden nog enkele andere soorten die worden waargenomen in de omliggende landen en die mogelijk ook in Belgie kunnen gevonden worden. Een overzicht van de bestaande literatuur over de steenvliegen in Belgie wordt gepresenteerd. Bovendien worden drie soorten voor het eerst gemeld voor de Belgische fauna: Amphinemura borealis (MORTON, 1894), Nemoura jlexuosa AUBERT, 1949 en Leuctra major BRINCK, 1949. Resume Dans cette etude, 52 especes de plecopteres sont rapportees pour la Belgique. Parmi celles-ci, 14 especes n' ont plus ete rapportees depuis plusieurs decennies. Certaines sont probablement passees inaper9ues et pourront etre redecouvertes dans le futur, mais d'autres auraient disparu, en particulier celles que l'on trouvait anciennement dans la Meuse ou dans le cours inferieur de l'Ourthe. Quelques especes ont ete rapportees des pays voisins et peuvent aussi etre presentes en Belgique. Trois especes sont rapportees ici pour la premiere fois de Belgique: Amphinemura borea/is {MORTON, 1894}, Nemourajlexuosa AUBERT, 1949 et Leuctra major BRINCK, 1949. Un aper9u de la litterature est donne. Introduction an overview is given about the literature dealing with Plecoptera in Belgium. Based on these data, The first checklist of the Belgian Plecoptera a checklist of the Belgian species is presented was made by DE SELYS-LONGCHAMPS (1888), and three additional species are reported here for who listed 21 species for Belgium, however, the first time for Belgium: Amphinemura these were not all identified correctly as will be borealis {MORTON, 1894), Nemoura jlexuosa discussed below. Later, LAMEERE (1900) only AUBERT, 1949 andLeuctra majorBRINCK, 1949. listed 13 species in his 'Manuel de la faune de Belgique', apparently he neglected the previous Materials and methods study. NAVAS (1911) copied the list ofDE SELYS­ LONGCHAMPS (1888) and added one species: During the present study, all the available Brachyptera putata (Newman, 1838). However, material, adults as well as larvae, from the Royal the latter species is restricted to the UK and the Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences (RBINS), Ukraine (FAUNA EUROPAEA, 2004) and no the University Faculty of Agronomic Sciences in material was preserved, this record was therefore Gembloux (FSAG), the Flemish Environmental omitted. AUBERT (1956), who studied the Agency (VMM), Ghent University (UGent), the collection of the Royal Belgian Institute of University of Antwerp (UA), the University of Natural Sciences, listed 50 species for Belgium Mons (UMons), the University of Liege (ULG) of which four were omitted here as will be and part of the material of the Departement de discussed below.

    Distribution and Ecology of the Stoneflies (Plecoptera) of Flanders

    Ann. Limnol. - Int. J. Lim. 2008, 44 (3), 203 - 213 Distribution and ecology of the stonefl ies (Plecoptera) of Flanders (Belgium) K. Lock, P.L.M. Goethals Ghent University, Laboratory of Environmental Toxicology and Aquatic Ecology, J. Plateaustraat 22, 9000 Gent, Belgium. Based on a literature survey and the identifi cation of all available collection material from Flanders, a checklist is presented, distribution maps are plotted and the relationship between the occurrence of the different species and water characteristics is analysed. Of the sixteen stonefl y species that have been recorded, three are now extinct in Flanders (Isogenus nubecula, Taen- iopteryx nebulosa and T. schoenemundi), while the remaining species are rare. The occurrence of stonefl ies is almost restricted to small brooks, while observations in larger watercourses are almost lacking. Although a few records may indicate that some larger watercourses have recently been recolonised, these observations consisted of single specimens and might be due to drift. Most stonefl y population are strongly isolated and therefore extremely vulnerable. Small brooks in the Campine region (northeast Flanders), which are characterised by a lower pH and a lower conductivity, contained a different stonefl y community than the small brooks in the rest of Flanders. Leuctra pseudosignifera, Nemoura marginata and Protonemura intricata are mainly found in small brooks in the loamy region, Amphinemura standfussi, Isoperla grammatica, Leuctra fusca, L. hippopus, N. avicularis and P. meyeri mainly occur in small Campine brooks, while L. nigra, N. cinerea and Nemurella pictetii can be found in both types. Nemoura dubitans can typically be found in stagnant water fed with freatic water.

    Color profile: Generic CMYK printer profile Composite Default screen 1083 Life history and production of mayflies, stoneflies, and caddisflies (Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera) in a spring-fed stream in Prince Edward Island, Canada: evidence for population asynchrony in spring habitats? Michelle Dobrin and Donna J. Giberson Abstract: We examined the life history and production of the Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera (EPT) commu- nity along a 500-m stretch of a hydrologically stable cold springbrook in Prince Edward Island during 1997 and 1998. Six mayfly species (Ephemeroptera), 6 stonefly species (Plecoptera), and 11 caddisfly species (Trichoptera) were collected from benthic and emergence samples from five sites in Balsam Hollow Brook. Eleven species were abundant enough for life-history and production analysis: Baetis tricaudatus, Cinygmula subaequalis, Epeorus (Iron) fragilis,andEpeorus (Iron) pleuralis (Ephemeroptera), Paracapnia angulata, Sweltsa naica, Leuctra ferruginea, Amphinemura nigritta,and Nemoura trispinosa (Plecoptera), and Parapsyche apicalis and Rhyacophila brunnea (Trichoptera). Life-cycle timing of EPT taxa in Balsam Hollow Brook was generally similar to other literature reports, but several species showed extended emergence periods when compared with other studies, suggesting a reduction in synchronization of life-cycle timing, pos- sibly as a result of the thermal patterns in the stream. Total EPT secondary production (June 1997 to May 1998) was 2.74–2.80 g·m–2·year–1 dry mass (size-frequency method). Mayflies were dominant, with a production rate of 2.2 g·m–2·year–1 dry mass, followed by caddisflies at 0.41 g·m–2·year–1 dry mass, and stoneflies at 0.19 g·m–2·year–1 dry mass.
  • About the Book the Format Acknowledgments

    About the Book the Format Acknowledgments

    About the Book For more than ten years I have been working on a book on bryophyte ecology and was joined by Heinjo During, who has been very helpful in critiquing multiple versions of the chapters. But as the book progressed, the field of bryophyte ecology progressed faster. No chapter ever seemed to stay finished, hence the decision to publish online. Furthermore, rather than being a textbook, it is evolving into an encyclopedia that would be at least three volumes. Having reached the age when I could retire whenever I wanted to, I no longer needed be so concerned with the publish or perish paradigm. In keeping with the sharing nature of bryologists, and the need to educate the non-bryologists about the nature and role of bryophytes in the ecosystem, it seemed my personal goals could best be accomplished by publishing online. This has several advantages for me. I can choose the format I want, I can include lots of color images, and I can post chapters or parts of chapters as I complete them and update later if I find it important. Throughout the book I have posed questions. I have even attempt to offer hypotheses for many of these. It is my hope that these questions and hypotheses will inspire students of all ages to attempt to answer these. Some are simple and could even be done by elementary school children. Others are suitable for undergraduate projects. And some will take lifelong work or a large team of researchers around the world. Have fun with them! The Format The decision to publish Bryophyte Ecology as an ebook occurred after I had a publisher, and I am sure I have not thought of all the complexities of publishing as I complete things, rather than in the order of the planned organization.

    Insect Egg Size and Shape Evolve with Ecology but Not Developmental Rate Samuel H

    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-019-1302-4 Insect egg size and shape evolve with ecology but not developmental rate Samuel H. Church1,4*, Seth Donoughe1,3,4, Bruno A. S. de Medeiros1 & Cassandra G. Extavour1,2* Over the course of evolution, organism size has diversified markedly. Changes in size are thought to have occurred because of developmental, morphological and/or ecological pressures. To perform phylogenetic tests of the potential effects of these pressures, here we generated a dataset of more than ten thousand descriptions of insect eggs, and combined these with genetic and life-history datasets. We show that, across eight orders of magnitude of variation in egg volume, the relationship between size and shape itself evolves, such that previously predicted global patterns of scaling do not adequately explain the diversity in egg shapes. We show that egg size is not correlated with developmental rate and that, for many insects, egg size is not correlated with adult body size. Instead, we find that the evolution of parasitoidism and aquatic oviposition help to explain the diversification in the size and shape of insect eggs. Our study suggests that where eggs are laid, rather than universal allometric constants, underlies the evolution of insect egg size and shape. Size is a fundamental factor in many biological processes. The size of an 526 families and every currently described extant hexapod order24 organism may affect interactions both with other organisms and with (Fig. 1a and Supplementary Fig. 1). We combined this dataset with the environment1,2, it scales with features of morphology and physi- backbone hexapod phylogenies25,26 that we enriched to include taxa ology3, and larger animals often have higher fitness4.

Outside of Scotland, this species has only ever been found in two areas – the River Usk in Wales and the Wye near Hereford, where it is now thought to be extinct. As an endemic species, the UK population is of international significance. Surveys in the last 15 years have confirmed that the Northern February red is present in the Dee from Linn of Dee downstream, a number of Dee tributaries and along the River Spey.
