“…However, in several mountain streams there is a higher contribution of the taxonomic richness of the orders Plecoptera, Ephemeroptera, and Trichoptera to the benthic community (Maiolini and Lencioni, 2001;Figueroa et al, 2003;Miserendino and Pizzolon, 2003), and overall higher invertebrate richness (Finn and Poff, 2005;Bogan and Lytle, 2007;Brown et al, 2007). Nevertheless, in the Uspallata stream, a tributary of the Mendoza River, it was found that Diptera and Ephemeroptera compose 60% of the benthic community, with low diversity of the orders Plecoptera, Trichoptera, and Coleoptera (Scheibler and Debandi, 2008).…”
