Abstract:Surface water drying challenges the persistence of lotic biological assemblages in non‐perennial streams and rivers. However, the effects of natural hydrological disturbances on an assemblage depend on individual species characteristics. In this study, we investigated the structure and association of fish and macroinvertebrate assemblages during two phases in non‐perennial streams (flowing vs. disconnected pools). We sampled fish and macroinvertebrate assemblages in five non‐perennial stream reaches located in… Show more
