Beta diversity of macroinvertebrate assemblages associated with aquatic macrophytes in shallow lakes within a tropical floodplain-dammed river [PDF]

open access: yesActa Limnologica Brasiliensia
: Aims We assessed the beta diversity of macroinvertebrates associated with aquatic macrophytes in a dam-regulated river floodplain. We tested two hypotheses: (1) macroinvertebrates associated with aquatic macrophytes have higher beta diversity (higher ...
