## Abstract The interstitial space of bed‐sediments is a major component of the stream system as it influences both physical and biological processes and patterns, such as exchanges between surface water and groundwater or the assemblage of invertebrates. To investigate the influence of grain‐size
I n the creek "Oberer Seebach", 355 springtails belonging to 42 species were collected from the water-filled pore space of the bed gravel proper and the adjacent, bank sediment. Almost 10 9; of 2094 samples contained Collembola, with a mean density of 1.8 specimens per positive sample. The topograp
## Abstract The vertical distribution of invertebrates in bed sediments was studied in a gravel stream in the hercynian region of Central Europe, using freeze‐cores to the depth of 70 cm at two sites with different flow conditions, taken on five occasions. About 78% of invertebrates were concentrat
