Distributions of Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera of three maritime catchments differing in pH

SUMMARY 1. Two broad‐scale environmental influences affecting species of Ephemeroptera, Trichoptera and Plecoptera inhabiting riffle habitat of three study catchments in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia were stream size‐temperature‐related variables and acidity‐related variables. 2. Species richness wa...

Zusammenfassung:SUMMARY 1. Two broad‐scale environmental influences affecting species of Ephemeroptera, Trichoptera and Plecoptera inhabiting riffle habitat of three study catchments in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia were stream size‐temperature‐related variables and acidity‐related variables. 2. Species richness was most affected by acidity in tributaries of intermediate size
