Metamorphosis in Motion: Aquatic Insect Ecology amid Environmental Shifts

Anubhav Goenka

Aquatic insects are among the most diverse and abundant organisms in freshwater ecosystems, playing crucial roles in nutrient cycling, food webs, and ecosystem health. They have evolved a wide array of adaptations to thrive in various aquatic habitats, from rushing streams to stagnant ponds. However, as our world undergoes rapid environmental changes, aquatic insect populations are facing new challenges that require them to adapt and evolve. In this article, we will explore the fascinating world of aquatic insect ecology and discuss how these remarkable creatures are responding to the ever-changing conditions of their aquatic homes.
