Potential phenotypic plasticity within Simulium nigrimanum Macquart, 1838 (Diptera: Simuliidae) larvae
Black fly larvae (Diptera: Simuliidae) are suspension filter-feeders which strongly depend on water velocity for proper feeding. Black fly species feature different microhabitat preferences. Studies of Holarctic black fly larvae revealed their phenotypic plasticity in response to water current veloc...
