Preface -- Aquatic Insects - why it is important to dedicate our time on their study? -- Distribution and Habitats of Aquatic Insects -- Dispersal by Aquatic Insects -- Effects of Abiotic Factors and Ecogeographic Patterns on the Ecology, Distribution and Behavior of Aquatic Insects -- The Biotic Environment: Multiple Interactions in an Aquatic World -- Drumming for Love: Mating Behavior in Stoneflies -- Aquatic Insect Sensilla: Morphology and Function -- Territoriality in Aquatic Insects -- Defenses of Water Insects -- Reproductive Behavior and Sexual Selection -- Sexual Conflict in Water Striders, Dragonflies and Diving Beetles -- Paternal Care in Giant Water Bugs -- The Aquatic Lepidopterans: A Mysterious and Unknown Fauna -- Urban Aquatic Insects -- The Tinbergen Shortfall: Developments on Aquatic Insect Behavior that are Critical for Freshwater Conservation -- Genetic Connectivity in Conservation of Freshwater Insects -- Aquatic Insects as a Source for Biomimetics -- Index.

This book presents a broad view of the ecology and behavior of aquatic insects, raising awareness of this conspicuous and yet little known fauna that inhabits inland waterbodies such as rivers, lakes and streams, and is particularly abundant and diverse in tropical ecosystems. The chapters address topics such as distribution, dispersal, territoriality, mating behavior, parental care and the role of sensory systems in the response to external and internal cues. In the context of ecology, it discusses aquatic insects as bio indicators that may be used to assess environmental disturbances, either in protected or urban areas, and provides insights into how genetic connectivity can support the development of novel conservation strategies. It also explores how aquatic insects can inspire solutions for various problems faced by modern society, presenting examples in the fields of material science, optics, sensorics and robotics.
