Table of Contents:
- Foreword
- The influence of ỚSHomage to Santa RosaliaỚ<U+00fd> on aquatic ecology: a scientometric approach
- Linking traits to species diversity and community structure in phytoplankton
- Drivers of phytoplankton diversity in Lake Tanganyika
- Rarity, ecological memory, rate of floral change in phytoplanktonỚ and the mystery of the Red Cock
- Diversity and community biomass depend on dispersal and disturbance in microalgal communities
- Influence of nutrients, submerged macrophytes and zooplankton grazing on phytoplankton biomass and diversity along a latitudinal gradient in Europe
- Why are there so many kinds of planktonic consumers? The answer lies in the allometric diet breadth
- Absence of predation eliminates coexistence: experience from the fishỚ<U+001c>zooplankton interface
- On non-Eltonian methods of hunting Cladocera, or impacts of the introduction of planktivorous fish on zooplankton composition and clear-water phase occurrence in a Mediterranean reservoir
- Out of Alaska: morphological diversity within the genus Eurytemora from its ancestral Alaskan range (Crustacea, Copepoda)
- Does lake age affect zooplankton diversity in Mediterranean lakes and reservoirs? A case study from southern Italy
- Homage to Hutchinson: does inter-annual climate variability affect zooplankton density and diversity?
- Homage to the Virgin of Ecology, or why an aquatic insect unadapted to desiccation may maintain populations in very small, temporary Mediterranean streams
- Winning the biodiversity arms race among freshwater gastropods: competition and coexistence through shell variability and predator avoidance
- Stygobiotic crustacean species richness: a question of numbers, a matter of scale
- Santa Rosalia, the icon of biodiversity.
