Abstract:
:The number of tracheal gills in the larval Limnephilini varies according to oxygen conditions of the surrounding waters. High proportions of oxygen cause a significant decrease in the number of gills, whereas low oxygen concentrations retult in a significant increase in the number of gills. These morphological adapations are related to moult.

OECOLOGIA文献大全abstract::To preserve biodiversity and ecosystem functions in a globally changing world it is crucial to understand the effect of land use on ecosystem processes such as pollination. Floral colouration is known to be central in plant-pollinator interactions. To date, it is still unknown whether land use affects the colouration ...
