Do we need taxonomy for the trait-based approach in biomonitoring?!? The first result of Djuradj Milosevic is out in Ecological Indicators : "Mandibular shape as a proxy for the identification of functional feeding traits of midge larvae (Diptera: Chironomidae)." Fond za nauku Republike Srbije

Our new paper regarding the automatic identification of traits is available online: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S14… Fond za nauku Republike Srbije
