Download or read book The Chironomidae written by P.D. Armitage and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 579 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dipteran family Chironomidae is the most widely distributed and frequently the most abundant group of insects in freshwater, with rep resentatives in both terrestrial and marine environments. A very wide range of gradients of temperature, pH, oxygen concentration, salinity, current velocity, depth, productivity, altitude and latitude have been exploited, by at least some chironomid species, and in grossly polluted environments chironomids may be the only insects present. The ability to exist in such a wide range of conditions has been achieved largely by behavioural and physiological adaptations with relatively slight morphological changes. It has been estimated that the number of species world-wide may be as high as 15000. This high species diversity has been attributed to the antiquity of the family, relatively low vagility leading to isolation, and evolutionary plasticity. In many aquatic ecosystems the number of chironomid species present may account for at least 50% of the total macroinvertebrate species recorded. This species richness, wide distribution and tolerance to adverse conditions has meant that the group is frequently recorded in ecological studies but taxonomic difficulties have in the past prevented non-specialist identification beyond family or subfamily level. Recent works, including genetic studies, have meant that the family is receiving much more attention globally.

Book Synopsis Diversity of Wetland Non-biting Midges (Diptera : Chironomidae) and Their Responses to Environmental Factors in Alberta by : Qi Liu
Download or read book Diversity of Wetland Non-biting Midges (Diptera : Chironomidae) and Their Responses to Environmental Factors in Alberta written by Qi Liu and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wetlands provide a wide range of services, including improving water quality, providing habitats for wildlife, and storing floodwaters. In Alberta, wetlands cover about 21% of the landscape of the province. In Alberta, as elsewhere, wetlands have suffered from human activities and many have declined in water quality and value as habitat. Non-biting midges (Diptera: Chironomidae) often dominate aquatic macroinvertebrate assemblages, both in number and diversity. They have been successfully used as indicators to assess water quality and human disturbance in streams. In contrast, the ecology of chironomids and value as indicators in wetlands are less explored. In this thesis, I use samples and environmental data from the Alberta Biodiversity Monitoring Institute (ABMI) to first explore what taxa of chironomids are present in Albertan wetlands. I created an atlas of all 40 chironomid genera identified, including a detailed glossary describing taxonomically important features of chironomids and a description of morphological and ecological features of each genus. This will provide baseline information and a good taxonomic tool for future chironomid studies in Alberta. Then I use multi- and univariate statistical approaches to assess the relationships between various aspects of chironomid community (i.e. chironomid assemblage structure, Shannon-Wiener index, total genus-richness, total abundance, and abundance of each genus) and both their associated habitats and measures of 'human footprint' (i.e., land with altered natural cover by human activities). Although several environmental factors and human footprint were identified as significantly correlated with chironomid variables, the overall relationships were weak (i.e. low variance explained). The weak correlation between chironomids and environmental variables could be due to the lack of important but unmeasured environmental variables, insufficient taxonomic resolution (i.e., responses may be clearer at species level), and/or that chironomids capable of living in wetlands in Alberta being robust generalists that are more tolerant of environmental variation than are chironomids associated with flowing water.

Book Synopsis Life Cycle and Development of Diptera by : Muhammad Sarwar
Download or read book Life Cycle and Development of Diptera written by Muhammad Sarwar and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2020-09-23 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diptera, or true flies, are of considerable economic importance, as these flies have a valuable role as scavengers, parasitoids and predators of other insects, pollinators, food for predators, bio-indicators of water quality, and tools for scientific research. In nine chapters, this book examines various aspects of flies of the order Diptera as well as some types of mosquitos and midges. Topics covered include taxonomy, phylogeny, life cycle, feeding habits, population control strategies, and more. A unique chapter on forensic entomology is particularly interesting. Beautifully illustrated and expertly researched, this volume will appeal to entomologists, biologists, and naturalists.
