Biodiversity of Aquatic Insects: Spatial Gradients and Environmental Correlates of Assemblage-Level Measures at Large Scales (2009, unknown): “…despite its importance, relatively few studies have examined congruence in the diversity patterns of aquatic organisms in general (Allen et al., 1999; Paavola et al., 2003; Heino et al., 2005) and aquatic insects in particular (Briers & Biggs, 2003; Heino et al., 2003b; Bilton et al., 2006).”
How wide to cast the net? Cross-taxon congruence of species richness, community similarity and indicator taxa in ponds (2006, background): “Briers & Biggs (2003) provide a quantitative evaluation of indicator taxa of pond invertebrate diversity, but restrict their analyses to sites in a single geographic region (Oxon, U.”
Are Water Beetles Good Indicators of Biodiversity in Mediterranean Aquatic Ecosystems? The Case of the Segura River Basin (SE Spain) (2006, background): “Nevertheless, the existence of a significant correlation between species or taxa richness does not necessarily indicate the extent to which sites selected on the basis of the indicator taxa represent wholesale species richness across all sites (Briers and Biggs 2003).”
Dragonfly community re‐organisation in boreal forest lakes: rapid species turnover driven by climate change? (2008, background): “Dragonflies can be used as diversity indicators, as selected species occur only in species-rich habitats (Sahlén & Ekestubbe, 2001; Suhling et al., 2006; see also Briers & Biggs, 2003; Bried et al., 2007).”
Freshwater mussel abundance predicts biodiversity in UK lowland rivers (2007, background): “Suggested single indicator taxa for fresh waters include the Odonata (Davis et al., 1987; Sahlen and Ekstubbe, 2001; Briers and Biggs, 2003), Coleoptera (Foster et al.”
The dragonfly delusion: why it is essential to sample exuviae to avoid biased surveys (2010, background): “This characteristic makes them valuable bio-indicators of both terrestrial and aquatic landscape quality (Clark and Samways 1996; Briers and Biggs 2003; Córdoba-Aguilar 2008; Catlin 2009).”
