Species composition, distribution, and summer emergence phenology of stoneflies (Insecta: Plecoptera) from Catamaran Brook, New Brunswick
Stonefly (Plecoptera) emergence was investigated between May and September of 1993 and 1994 in Catamaran Brook, New Brunswick, as part of a base-line study to evaluate the effects of timber harvest on Atlantic salmon habitat in Atlantic Canada. Thirty-one stonefly species representing seven families...
