Aquatic hyphomycetes communities occur as potential bioindicators of water quality
With a profound knowledge of how physico-chemical parameters affect these communities, microbial communities could be used as indicators for environmental changes and for risk assessment studies. We studied aquatic hyphomycete communities in ponds from sites shaped by intense human activities (namely the “Mansfeld region”) and Urmil river, there are no sources of man made effluents in Chhatarpu...
متن کاملStaphylinid beetles as bioindicators
The family Staphylinidae is one of the largest beetle families and is distributed worldwide in almost all types of ecosystems. The morpho-ecological characteristics of staphylinid beetle adults and developmental stages are summarized, and features pertaining to their potential use as bioindicators are highlighted. Methods of study and practical examples are given for the application of staphyli...
متن کاملMacrophytes as bioindicators
Submerged macrophytes respond to changes in the nutrient concentrations in their environment. In contrast to diatoms e.g., submerged macrophytes are capable of taking up nutrients from both the sediment pore water and the overlying water. Therefore, macrophytes can provide a more comprehensive assessment of river ecosystems. Two methods using submerged macrophytes to assess and monitor changes ...
متن کاملWaterbirds as Bioindicators of Environmental Conditions
One of the aims of monitoring is to provide information for ecological assessment, which can provide early warning of changes that could negatively affect species or ecosystems (Burger 2006). Since it is impractical to monitor all biological and physical components, a few of them can be used as indicators of wider conditions. Biological components chosen with this aim are called bioindicators (...
متن کاملPolytene chromosomes of salivary glands of chironomids (Diptera: Chironomidae) from the Wrangel Island (Russia)
Polytene chromosomes of chironomid larvae (Diptera: Chironomidae), collected on the Wrangel Island are described. Larvae have 2n=8: AB, CD, EF, G (Ch. thummi Keyl, 1962 complex). By karyotype larvae are identical to Chironomus sp. Le1, described from the Sagystyr Island of the Ust-Lena Reserve (Yakutia) (Kiknadze et al., 1996). The insignificant differences include the number of nucleoli and pu...
