Cave amphipods reveal co-variation between morphology and trophic niche in a low-productivity environment

Ester Premate et al.

Summary: It was found in the study that in environments with limited groundwater resources, there is a strong correlation between the morphological characteristics and trophic habits of Niphargus amphipods. Species with larger and more powerful gnathopods tend to have higher trophic positions, indicating a close relationship between morphology and trophic habits.

A subterranean adaptive radiation of amphipods in Europe

Spela Borko et al.

Summary: The study presented evidence for a large adaptive radiation of the subterranean amphipod genus Niphargus, indicating that multiple subordinate adaptive radiations make up the major adaptive radiation, which originated around 15 million years ago in association with the uplift of carbonate massifs in South-Eastern Europe.
