Capture—Incubate—Release: An Animal‐Friendly Approach to Assess Local Aquatic Macroinvertebrate Species Diversity Through Environmental DNA Metabarcoding We assessed whether we can combine the advantages of both bulk and eDNA metabarcoding, that is, obtaining a local signal and being minimally invasive, to improve local invertebrate detections in stre...

Small study from our lab @unidue.bsky.social shows advantage of having wings to surpass barriers in urban environments. High population connectivitiy of Sialis lutaria in the #Emscher region. Different in purely aquatic species like isopods. @crc-resist.bsky.social

Portrait picture of Julian Enß ((c) UDE/Hohmann). Text next to it: The fascinating world of aquatic species

Photo of a larva ((c) Julian Enß). Text next to it: Larva of the stonefly, Brachyptera risi.

Graphic with quote by Julian Enß: I study how insects and other small animals spread in streams and rivers, whether as larvae or adults. I am particularly interested in how far they can swim or fly and how, for example, their size, their sex or the living conditions in their habitat influence these distances.

Graphic with quote by Julian Enß: iodiversity is not only a professional topic for me, but also a personal passion. A normal walk is actually impossible for me - I always have to stop to look for interesting insects. I capture these encounters on camera and share them on Instagram to show what fascinating animals live right on our doorstep. In doing so, I want to raise awareness of the importance of biodiversity and appreciation for our natural world. My appeal: take a closer look when you encounter an insect - the true beauty is often in the detail, and if you take the time to look closely, you will discover a fascinating world.

Even as a child, Julian Enß marveled at the diversity of creatures in streams - today he conducts research in #aquaticecology at the #UDE and @crc-resist.bsky.social and also introduces non-scientists to #aquaticspecies. To the interview 👉 www.uni-due.de/2025-01-28-w... #whyidoresearch

Saving the Ryukyu Rabbit Tick: The Posterchild of Parasite Conservation • The Revelator This endangered invertebrate is harmless to humans — and rabbits. Saving it from extinction might even benefit both species.

Parasite conservation sounds like a counterintuitive idea, but actually there are lots of reasons why this is important for the long term sustainability of biodiversity and ecosystem processes. #parasitology #ticks #ectoparasite 🪱🧪🌍
