Conservation of taxonomic and biological trait diversity of European stream macroinvertebrate communities: a case for a collective public database

2007-11-01

Abstract excerpt

The use of databases for the conservation of biodiversity is increasing. During the last decade, such a database has been created for European stream macroinvertebrates. Today, it includes 527 sites that are the least human-impacted representatives of many stream types across many European regions. It includes data on the abundance of 312 invertebrate genera, several environmental site characteristics, collection...
