Trophic reorganization of native planktivorous fishes at different density extremes of bigheaded carps in the Illinois and Mississippi rivers, USA
The widespread introduction of non-native fishes has contributed to freshwater ecosystems being considered among the most altered ecosystems...

Patterns in spatial use and movement of Silver Carp among tributaries and main-stem rivers: insight from otolith microchemistry analysis
Invasive Silver Carp ( Hypophthalmichthys molitrix ) have established populations throughout the Missouri River basin. The main-stem Missouri River has...

Synchronous decline of native bitterling population detected from 9 years of survey in rivers and agricultural ditches around Lake Kasumigaura, Japan
To assess the population dynamics, abundance of bitterling species and two non-bitterling cyprinid species were investigated in Lake Kasumigaura,...

The role of the environment and connectivity with large rivers and streams on local fish diversity of tropical headwater streams
The aim of this investigation was to determine whether fish diversity in headwater streams is influenced by environment, connectivity with large...

Effects of urban-agricultural land-use on Afrotropical macroinvertebrate functional feeding groups in selected rivers in the Niger Delta Region, Nigeria
Anthropogenic pollution from urban and agricultural activities continually affects freshwater ecosystems in Africa, adversely affecting water quality...

Nest-use pattern of fluvial goby (Rhinogobius flumineus) in relation to the presence or absence of amphidromous congener: a case study of two rivers in southern central Honshu, Japan
Fishes of the genus Rhinogobius (Gobiidae) display paternal care of their nests, constructed beneath stones. Rhinogobius flumineus often coexist with...

Sturgeons in large rivers: detecting the near-extinct needles in a haystack via eDNA metabarcoding from water samples
Sturgeon populations are declining worldwide and are the target of extensive conservation efforts. Addressed in several pieces of legislation,...

Response of functional diversity of fish communities to habitat alterations in small lowland rivers
Functional diversity has proven to be more responsive than traditional taxonomic diversity to alterations for a wide set of communities, especially...

Exploring fish functional trait assemblages in Eastern Mediterranean rivers: a study across multiple scales using network analysis
Functional traits of river fish assemblages have rarely been studied in the Eastern Mediterranean region. A dataset of 254 Greek electrofished...

Spatio-temporal drivers of different oomycete beta diversity components in Brazilian rivers
Disentangling the role of mechanisms driving metacommunity structure is fundamental for conservation strategies. Several studies have been done in...
-
Multi-decadal improvements in the ecological quality of European rivers are not consistently reflected in biodiversity metrics
Humans impact terrestrial, marine and freshwater ecosystems, yet many broad-scale studies have found no systematic, negative biodiversity changes...

Local hydrological conditions and spatial connectivity shape invertebrate communities after rewetting in temporary rivers
Temporary rivers (TRs) dominate global river networks and are increasing in occurrence and spatiotemporal extent. However, few studies have...
