    Notes: SUMMARY. 1. Two predictive models were employed along with intensive field sampling to estimate production of black flies (Simulium spp.) on snags (submerged wood) in three blackwater streams on the Georgia Coastal Plain of the southeastern U.S.A. One model predicts daily growth rate from temperature and hydrograph pattern; the other predicts habitat abundance (of snags) from river height.2. In the sixth order Ogeechee River, annual production was twice as high in 1982 (7.1 g dry mass [=DM] m−2 of snag surface) as in 1983 (3.6 g DM m−2). When converted to production per m2 of river bottom, values were 35–40% of the snag surface estimates. Annual production was much lower in fourth order Black Creek (1982, 1.3 g DM m−2 of snag surface) and much higher in the sixth order Satilla River (1975, 15.6–40.0 g DM m−2).3. There was a distinct bimodal pattern of black fly production in the Ogeechee River in both years, with peaks occurring in winter and summer. Similar bimodal patterns of production were found in Black Creek and in the Satilla River. Although there appears to be an intrinsic component to the bimodal pattern, production peaks (growth rate and biomass) appear to be associated with initial stages of flooding.4. Annual production/biomass ratios (37–85) are the highest reported for black fly populations. The variation of annual P/B ratios among sites was more strongly dependent on the temporal distribution of standing stock biomass than on differences in growth rates. Variation in production among sites appears to be due to differences in current velocity, hydro-graph variability, and abundance of coexisting consumers.

    Notes: SUMMARY. Hynes & Coleman (1968) proposed a method for estimating benthic secondary production for use with populations in which cohorts cannot be distinguished and for use with unidentified benthos. Hamilton (1969) corrected and refined the method, emphasizing the concept of the average cohort. Zwick (1975) recently suggested the method should not be used since: (1) too many conditions need to be filled for use with unidentified material, and (2) it is strongly dependent on growth patterns. This paper shows that Zwick misinterpreted the concept of the average cohort, and his apparent invalidation of the method due to dependence on growth patterns is erroneous.

    Notes: 1. We investigated the responsiveness of aquatic invertebrates to rehydration of floodplain soil in a south-eastern U.S. river floodplain. Non-inundated soil divots containing invertebrate seedbanks were collected from three floodplain elevations with different inundation histories (inundated for 2, 38, and 78% of a year), and subjected to rehydration (experimental inundation) in aquaria for 10 weeks.2. Before rehydration, samples were collected to assess the initial density and composition of invertebrates in non-inundated soil at each elevation. After rehydration, benthic samples were collected biweekly and emergence of aquatic insects was collected weekly from aquaria.3. The surviving invertebrates were classified as aquatic, semi-aquatic and terrestrial. Some aquatic invertebrates survived the non-inundated period in an active state (e.g. Chironomidae and Ceratopogonidae), while others appeared to be dormant (e.g. Heptageniidae, microcrustaceans and Chironomidae). The response for several invertebrates (e.g. Chironominae, Oligochaeta, Collembola and terrestrial invertebrates) depended on the length of rehydration and inundation history.4. The capacity of aquatic invertebrates to survive and recover was greatest at the most frequently inundated site. Despite variation in floodplain environments, both active and dormant invertebrates persisting in non-inundated floodplain soil contributed to the floodplain assemblage during flooding. Thus, maintaining the connection between river and floodplain appears to be important in sustaining the invertebrate seedbank and its capacity to recover during inundation. River channelisation and regulation that severs this connection may result in a loss of diversity and abundance.

    Notes: 1. Secondary production was estimated for Plecoptera, Odonata and Megaloptera (mostly large predators) occurring on the snag habitat of a subtropical blackwater river in the southeastern U.S.A. Coastal Plain for 2 years. Production estimates and gut analyses were used in estimating species-specific ingestion to construct a quantitative food web of the predator portion of the invertebrate assemblage. Neither basal resources (e.g. detritus) nor predaceous vertebrates (e.g. fishes) were considered in this analysis. A discharge-specific model of snag-habitat availability was used to convert values per m2 of snag surface to values per m2 of river bed. 
2. These three orders included the major large predators on the snag habitat, as well as two detritivorous stoneflies. The major predators were the hellgrammite (Corydaluscornutus), five perlid stoneflies (Paragnetinakansensis, Perlestaplacida, Neoperlaclymene, Acroneuriaevoluta and Acroneuriaabnormis) and two dragonflies (Neurocorduliamolesta and Boyeriavinosa). The detritivores were Pteronarcysdorsata and Taeniopteryxlita. 
3. Total predator production was high, but varied from only 7.1 to 7.4 g dry mass (DM) m−2 y−1 of snag surface (2.4–2.7 g DM m−2 y−1 of river bed) over two years. Corydalus was the largest predator and had the highest production (2.8–3.1 g DM m−2 of snag surface). The most productive stoneflies were Perlesta (0.7–1.0 g DM m−2 of snag surface) and Paragnetina (1.0–1.3 g DM m−2 of snag surface). The most productive dragonfly was Neurocordulia (0.7–1.9 g DM m−2 of snag surface). Production of the non-predaceous stoneflies was 1.0–2.3 g DM m−2 of snag surface. Production values per m2 of river bed were 2–3.5 times lower than the values per m2 snag surface. 
4. Measurement of ingestion fluxes within the predator portion of the food web showed that predaceous invertebrates were primarily supported by chironomid and mayfly prey. However, the greatest consumption of chironomids and mayflies was by omnivorous hydropsychid caddisflies, which had a considerably higher production than the larger predators. There was a hierarchy of feeding with Corydalus as top predator consuming all other groups, followed in order by dragonflies, stoneflies and hydropsychids. Although the feeding hierarchy suggested the presence of four predatory trophic levels within the invertebrate assemblage, calculations of trophic position indicated there were less than two. With primary consumers (e.g. midges) having a trophic position of 2, Corydalus had a trophic position of only 3.5. 
5. A relatively high fraction of invertebrate production was consumed by predaceous invertebrates, ranging from 9 to 〉100% for various primary consumer groups, with total consumption representing 52% of total production. Because these estimates do not include vertebrate consumption or emergence, it means that a high fraction of larval mortality is due to predation.

    Notes: Abstract Field experiments using small replicated enclosures focused on interactions between larval populations of Epitheca cynosura and Ladona deplanata (Odonata: Anisoptera) — two species that emerge in early spring. The presence of Epitheca reduced the total biomass of Ladona, but Ladona had no significant effect on Epitheca. These early-emerging species reduced the biomass of small instars of late-emerging Anisoptera which colonized enclosures during the experiments; and the late-emerging Anisoptera seem to have inhibited colonization by Zygoptera larvae. Results are consistent with the importance of predatory (cannibalism or mutual predation) interactions in this community.
