“…We must conclude therefore that, despite numerous reports of upstream movements of species in this order(e.g. Roos, I 957;Elliott, 1969;Mackay, 1969;Lehmann, 1970;Svensson, 1974 andNeves, 1979), those that we were collecting, Cheumatopsyche oxa Ross, C. campyla Ross, Hydroptila consimilis Morton, Chimarra aterrima Hagen and Polycentropus centralis Banks, d o not display this phenomenon. This is of interest because, as within the genus Baetis related species seem to differ in this respect.…”

“…His concept has been supported for certain species by direct observation of upstream flight, or by finding more females than males in upstream reaches (Roos, 1957, Nishimura, 1967Elliott, 1969;Madsen et al, 1973;1977;Madsen & Butz, 1976;Bengtsson et al, 1972;Gothberg, 1972;Pearson & Kramer, 1972;Lehmann, 1970;Thomas, 1975;Svensson, 1974 andNeves, 1979). Other workers have, however, observed that the direction of flight is governed largely by the wind (Elliott, 1967;Bishop & Hynes, 1969).…”

Sticky traps placed across a stream in southern Ontario in June and September showed that only females of the mayfly Baetis inrercalaris and the caddisfly Lype diversa were flying upstream and so conforming to the concept of the colonization cycle. Other species, B. vagans, Cheumatopsyche oxa, C. campyla, Hydroptila consimilis, Chimarra aterrima and Polycentropus centralis seemed to be flying at random along the stream. There was a distinct downstream movement of Baetis subimagos near the water surface. It is shown that a series of4 trapsacross the stream gives a better indication of directional movement than a single one.In March the winter stonefly Allocapnia vivipara was shown to walk away at approximately right angles to the stream and to ascend trees at the edge of the woods 16 m away.

“…Notably during spates, invertebrates are reported to drift several hundred metres . For example, Neves (1979) found that trichopteran larvae were carried up to 670 m downstream after a heavy rainstorm . Drift over several hundred metres has also been reported at low current velocities to avoid unfavourable habitats such as pools (Leudtke & Brusven, 1976 ;Walton, 1980a ;Vinikour, 1981 ;Dudgeon, 1983) .…”

Invertebrate drift ? A review

1988

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This paper reviews the literature on invertebrate drift in running waters, emphasising papers published during the last 10-15 years . The terms constant drift, catastrophic drift, behavioural drift, active drift and distributional drift are defined, but their use should be limited as much confusion has arisen . Sampling methods are briefly reviewed .The composition of drift in streams and rivers is assessed, especially with respect to temporal variation, drift densities and drift distances . This body of descriptive literature is subsequently analysed in relation to both abiotic and biotic variables, such as current/discharge, photoperiod, temperature, benthic densities, predators and life cycle stage .The ecosystem significance of drift in terms of colonization and distribution, population dynamics and its importance as a food resource are then reviewed and discussed . Drift enables organisms to escape unfavourable conditions and gives them the potential to colonize new habitats . However, mortality poses a constant threat . The drift community is composed of components whose presence in the drift may be due to widely differing reasons . This renders unsuccessful most attempts to explain drift in terms of one or even a few factors, except in extreme cases, such as floods or pollution . The question whether drifting organisms are alive, dead, or "ecologically dead" is seldom addressed, as is variation at the level of the individual .The drift literature is dominated by large numbers of descriptive papers and there is a need for laboratory and field studies aimed at testing specific hypotheses .

“…Weak stream flows may move invertebrates that live on or in the upper layer of the substratum to a limited extent, while strong flows can actually dislodge them and initiate drift (Vogel 1994). Drift is regarded as the dominant form of invertebrate movement in streams (Waters 1972;Brittain and Eikeland 1988), travelling short to long distances before returning to the stream bottom (McLay 1970;Neves 1979).…”

Flow velocity tolerance of lowland stream caddisfly larvae (Trichoptera)

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The process of macroinvertebrate drift in streams is characterized by dislodgement, drift distance and subsequent return to the bottom. While dislodgement is well studied, the fate of drifting organisms is poorly understood, especially concerning Trichoptera. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to determine the ability of six case-building Trichoptera species to return to the stream bottom under different flow velocity conditions in a laboratory flume. The selected species occur in North-West European sandy lowland streams along a gradient from lentic to lotic environments. We determined species specific probability curves for both living and dead (control) specimens to return to the bottom from drift at different flow velocities and established species specific return rates. Species on the lotic end of the gradient had highest return rates at high flow velocity and used active behaviour most efficiently to return to the bottom from drift. The observed gradient of flow velocity tolerance and species specific abilities to settle from drift indicate that, in addition to dislodgement, the process of returning to the bottom is of equal importance in determining flow velocity tolerance of Trichoptera species.
