Variations in lake-outlet Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera communities amongst regions of eastern Newfoundland, Canada
Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera communities at 23 lake-outlet sites in four regions of boreal eastern Newfoundland, Canada, are described and compared. Faunal richness was low, with a total of 51 taxa collected (14 for Ephemeroptera, 3 for Plecoptera, and 34 for Trichoptera). Hydropsychid...
