Two new Harpellales living in Ephemeroptera nymphs in Colorado Rocky Mountain streams

Two new species of harpellid gut fungi (Zygomycota: Trichomycetes) are described from the hindguts of mayfly nymphs inhabiting high altitude Rocky Mountain streams: the new genus and species Legeriosimilis tricaudata living in Ameletus sp. (Siphlonuridae), and the new species Glotzia coloradense fro

Delayed egg hatching and semivoltinism in the nearctic stonefly <i>Megarcys signata</i> (Plecoptera:Perlodidae)

Delayed egg hatching can influence the survival of aquatic insects by reducing exposure to competi- tors, predators, parasites, or unfavorable environmental conditions. We examined egg development in a Colorado population of the stonefly, Megarcys signata (Plecoptera: Perlodidae), whose larvae in- h

Criteria determining behavioural responses to multiple predators by a stream mayfly

McIntosh. A. R. and Peckarsky, B. L. 1999. Criteria determining behavioural responses to multiple predators by a stream mayfly - Oikos 85: 554-564. We investigated prey responses to multiple predators by observing drift and positioning of Buetis bicuudctrus (Ephemeroptera: Baetidae) nymphs in the pr

Three Harpellales that live in one species of aquatic chironomid larva

Two new species of harpellid gut fungi, Smittium fecundum and Stachylina robusta, were found living in larvae of Psectrocladius sp. (Diptera: Chironomidae) in a high-altitude kettle pond in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. A third species of Harpellales, Smittium mucronatum, previously known only fr

Dispersal of the fairy shrimp <i>Branchinecta coloradensis</i> (Anostraca): Effects of hydroperiod and salamanders

The absence of fairy shrimp (Anostraca) from permanent ponds and lakes is hypothesized to be the result of vertebrate predation. However, hatching cues for anostracan diapausing eggs include factors associated with the filling of temporary pond basins, and desiccation often increases the fraction of

Effects of size at metamorphosis on stonefly fecundity, longevity, and reproductive success

The data suggest that selection pressures determining body size at metamorphosis may operate independently on males and females, resulting in evolution of sexual size dimorphism, protandry, and mating early in the adult stage.

Fitness and community consequences of avoiding multiple predators

This study demonstrates the importance of considering multiple predators when measuring direct sublethal effects of predators on prey fitness and indirect effects on lower trophic levels, and attributes the non-additivity of effects of fish and stoneflies on mayfly growth to an interaction modificat

Life histories and the strengths of species interactions: combining mortality, growth, and fecundity effects

Interactive effects of one species on another may simultaneously influence mortality, growth, and fecundity. To quantify the strength of an interaction between two species, we must therefore use techniques that integrate these various responses into estimates of overall effect. Demographic models of
