Relationships between life‐history strategies of European freshwater fish species and their habitat preferences (2007, background): “For instance, Lamouroux et al. (2002) identified relationships between morphological and behavioural traits of fish communities and their physical environment that are valid in different continents.”
Fish assemblages structure and function along environmental gradients in rivers of Gabon (Africa) (2007, background): “, reproductive, trophic or morphological traits) to explain assemblage structure (Angermeier & Karr 1983; Schlosser 1987; Oberdorff et al. 1993, 2002; Chipps et al. 1994; Belliard et al. 1997; Mérigoux et al. 1998; Kamdem-Toham & Teugels 1998; Lamouroux et al. 2002).”
Functional trait niches of North American lotic insects: traits-based ecological applications in light of phylogenetic relationships (2006, background): “Because traits are not necessarily dependent on phylogeny, a traits-based approach can, in principle, be applied across biogeographic boundaries to examine issues such as community convergence under similar selection regimes (e.g., Lamouroux et al. 2002).”
Convergence of temperate and tropical stream fish assemblages (2009, background): “For example, Lamouroux et al. (2002) have found that some morphological traits of fish assemblages in Europe and North America were similarly related to stream environmental conditions such as hydraulics and geomorphology.”
Biological assessments of Appalachian streams based on predictive models for fish, macroinvertebrate, and diatom assemblages (2008, background): “…with a large body of literature that describes strong geographic patterns in stream fish distributions in the eastern USA (Mayden 1987, Angermeier and Winston 1999), and also agree with recent studies that show hydrologic properties can influence stream fish distributions (Lamouroux et al. 2002).”
A macroecological perspective of trait patterns in stream communities (2013, background): “The situation is likely to be more complex than this, however, and community convergence along major environmental gradients in different regions may also mean that the same trait combinations are selected in habitats with similar conditions in evolutionarily divergent biogeographic regions (Schlute”
Macroinvertebrate community structure and biological traits related to flow permanence in a Mediterranean river network (2007, background): “…Habitat Templet by Townsend & Hildrew, 1994—RHT) include a wide array of aquatic organisms, from fungi to amphibians and fish (e.g., Joly & Morand, 1994; Muotka & Virtaten, 1995; Pattee & Chergui, 1995; Biggs et al., 1998; Townsend et al., 1997; Lamouroux et al., 2002; 2004; Poff et al., 2006).”
Comparisons of Fish Species Traits from Small Streams to Large Rivers (2004, background): “Knowledge of functional traits varies greatly by species and is often incomplete (Lamouroux et al. 2002).”
