The influence of environmental variables and the potential as bioindicators larval stages species Trichoptera were evaluated in a small stream northern Thailand from January to November 2017. A total 1,191 individual caddisfly larvae belonging 7 families 13 genus found. family Glossosomatidae most abundant, followed by Hydropsychidae Calamoceratidae. Glossosoma, Hydromanicusand Hydropsyche abun...

The dynamics of physico-chemical factors and their effects on caddisfly communities were examined in 29 streams of southern Western Ghats. Monthly samples were collected from the Thadaganachiamman stream of Sirumalai Hills, Tamil Nadu from May 2006 to April 2007. Southwest and northeast monsoons favored the existence of caddisfly population in streams. A total of 20 caddisfly taxa were collecte...

This article considers the natural regulators of blood-sucking Simuliidae subzone mixed forests on territory Belarus and Ukraine. In forests, major preimaginal phases bloodsucking blackflies are microsporidia (Polidyspirenia simulii, Polidyspirenia sp., Thelohania fibrata, Amblyospora bracteata, A. varians), fungi mermithides (Gastromermis boophthorae). Caddisfly larvae (Hydropsyche angustipenn...

BACKGROUND Eco-faunistic studies are inevitable step in environmental researches. Aquatic organisms like caddisflies are known as biological indicators for water quality assessment and water resource management. They have special role for energy flow in the freshwater habitats as food web and food chain among aquatic creatures. METHODS In addition to an extensive literature review on Iran Cad...
