Spatial Distribution and Diversity of Macroinvertebrates on the Stony Shore of a Subarctic Lake
Abstract Quantitative samples taken with a new colonisation sampler over three years demonstrated a macroinvertebrate community of 25 taxa in the stony littoral of Takvatn, North Norway. The spatial variance was density‐dependent and the ‘index of aggregation’ varied in the range 1.01–1.73 for 13 co...
