Wetlands in the Pleistocene Steppe-Tundra Landscapes of Beringia, Their Insects, and the Role of Aeolian Sedimentation
Analysis of the database of Beringian subfossil insect assemblages showed a relatively low role of aquatic, riparian, and wetland species of insects with hard exoskeleton in the Pleistocene communities and an increase in their proportions and taxonomic diversity in the Holocene. Aquatic insects were...
