• Macroinvertebrate functional feeding groups in Kenyan highland streams: evidence for a diverse shredder guild (2014, background): “A number of authors have reported low diversity of shredders in streams in some tropical regions (e.g., Brazil: Gonçalves et al. 2006; Colombia: Mathuriau and Chauvet 2002; Costa Rica: Irons et al. 1994; East Africa: Tumwesigye et al. 2000, Dobson et al. 2002, Masese et al. 2009b; Hong Kong: Li and ”
• Litter decomposition in a Cerrado savannah stream is retarded by leaf toughness, low dissolved nutrients and a low density of shredders (2007, background): “The ATP contents in P. brasiliense (present data) and in A. glutinosa (Gonçalves et al., 2006) were consistently higher in the tropical Cerrado than in the temperate stream.”
• A conceptual model of litter breakdown in low order streams (2015, unknown): “, 2003), and in some Mediterranean streams of the Iberian Peninsula (Gonçalves et al., 2006; Pérez et al., 2011).”
• Leaf litter traits predominantly control litter decomposition in streams worldwide (2018, background): “However, water dissolved O2 in streams usually decreases sig‐ nificantly with increasing water temperatures (Gonçalves et al., 2006; Iñiguez‐Armijos et al., 2016; Pettit et al., 2012).”
• Shredders in Malaysia: abundance and richness are higher in cool upland tropical streams (2009, background): “…1994, Bougainville Island: Yule 1996a, b, Hong Kong: Dudgeon and Wu 1999, Kenya: Dobson et al. 2002, Colombia: Mathuriau and Chauvet 2002, Brazil: Gonçalves et al. 2006), but recent reports indicate that this pattern is not ubiquitous (e.g., Australia: Cheshire et al. 2005, Panama: Camacho et…”
