The influence of connectivity in forest patches, and riparian vegetation width on stream macroinvertebrate fauna
We assessed two dimensions of stream connectivity: longitudinal (between forest patches along the stream) and lateral (riparian vegetation), using macroinvertebrate assemblages as bioindicators. Sites representing different land-uses were sampled in a lowland basin that holds a mosaic of protected a...
