Title Relationship between invertebrate assemblage structure, 2 trout species, and habitat structure in Utah mountain lakes
Creator Carlisle, D. M. Hawkins, Charles P.
Description We tested 4 current hypotheses about how trout predation and habitat structure affect lentic invertebrate assemblages. The hypotheses were 1) trout predation affects larger-bodied species and individuals more strongly than small ones, 2) brook and cutthroat trout affect invertebrates differently because of species-specific feeding preferences, 3) the effects of predation by both trout species are less pronounced in structurally complex habitats than in simpler ones, and 4) physical habitat is...
