Aquatic insects dealing with dehydration: do desiccation resistance traits differ in species with contrasting habitat preferences?

BACKGROUND: Desiccation resistance shapes the distribution of terrestrial insects at multiple spatial scales. However, responses to drying stress have been poorly studied in aquatic groups, despite their potential role in constraining their distribution and diversification, particularly in arid and...
