Title | Biodiversity of stream insects: variation at local, basin, and regional spatial scales |
Creator | Vinson, M. L. Hawkins, Charles P. |
Description | We review the major conceptual developments that have occurred over the last 50 years concerning the factors that influence insect biodiversity in streams and examine how well empirical descriptions and theory match. Stream insects appear to respond to both spatial and temporal variation in physical heterogeneity. At all spatial scales, the data largely support the idea that physical complexity promotes biological richness, although exceptions to this relationship were found. These exceptions... |
