The distributional patterns of surface-dwelling insects in a Tenerife stream (Canary Islands)

Abstract: Eight surface-living insect species, two gyrinid beetles and six heteropteran bugs, were studied in 27 pools in a Tenerife stream. Gyrinus urinator was on average the most abundant species whereas Velia lindbergi was the most widely distributed one. Gyrinid abundance (numbers per pool), but not density (numbers per square metre), was positively associated with pool size and depth. In contrast, the densities of the bugs Velia lindbergi and Hydrometra stagnorum decreased with pool size. Both the number of specie… Show more
