A comparative analysis reveals weak relationships between ecological factors and beta diversity of stream insect metacommunities at two spatial levels.

TL;DR: The hypotheses that beta diversity should increase with decreasing latitude and increase with spatial extent of a region have rarely been tested based on a comparative analysis of multiple datasets, and no such study has focused on stream insects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thresholds of freshwater biodiversity in response to riparian vegetation loss in the Neotropical region

Renato Bolson Dala-Corte, +50 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors estimated thresholds of native vegetation loss in which there are abrupt changes in the occurrence and abundance of freshwater bioindicators and tested whether there are congruent responses among different biomes, biological groups and buffer sizes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonlinear responses in damselfly community along a gradient of habitat loss in a savanna landscape

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used threshold indicator taxa analysis (TITAN) to test whether the damselfly community showed nonlinear responses related to native vegetation loss within buffers of 250 m radius.
Journal ArticleDOI

Toward a practical use of Neotropical odonates as bioindicators: Testing congruence across taxonomic resolution and life stages

TL;DR: Considering the cost-benefit of taxonomic level and sampling of larvae and adults, the results suggest that abundance of adult genera could be used in biomonitoring programs since they capture 94% and 54% of the information carried by adult species and larvae.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selecting indicators based on biodiversity surrogacy and environmental response in a riverine network: Bringing operationality to biomonitoring

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated cross-taxon congruence of assemblage composition patterns using both quantitative and qualitative data between adult dragonflies and aquatic insects and developed a set of guiding criteria that avoid arbitrariness in the selection of the best indicator group.
