Invertebrate drift, the downstream transport of aquatic invertebrates, is a fundamental
ecological process in streams with important management implications for drift-feeding …

Abstract Structure and composition of benthic macroinvertebrate assemblages were
investigated in seven sampling sites with a gradient of environmental integrity and water …

Cada ambiente requiere adaptaciones particulares y por lo tanto alberga distintos grupos
de organismos. El agua dulce es un medio distinto del agua salada y de la tierra firme. Muy …

Lotic ecosystems can be studied on several spatial scales, and usually show high
heterogeneity at all of them in terms of biological and environmental characteristics …

Different land uses affect the characteristics of a hydrographic basin, reflected in the river
water quality, and consequently affecting the aquatic biota. The benthic community closely …

A central tenet of ecological stoichiometry is that consumer elemental composition is
relatively independent of food resource nutrient content. Although the P content of some …

Benthic invertebrates and their drift in eight streams in equatorial North Sulawesi were
sampled to provide a first description of lotic communities on this large Indonesian island …

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of monsoonal spates and land uses on
abundance, richness, diversity, and evenness of benthic macroinvertebrates in streams, and …

Costa Rica alberga una biodiversidad extraordinaria y se encuentra afortunadamente entre
los países neotropicales mejor estudiados. Los insectos representan el grupo más diverso …

We manipulated hydraulic conditions over patches of sands and fine gravels in an upland,
gravel‐bed river using a portable flume and assessed changes in the drift rates of three …
