The downstream distribution and larval development of the Plecoptera from a Pyrenean stream were studied upstream and downstream of a hydroelectric power plant with intermittent hypolimnetic releases. During power generation, flow and temperature were the two main environmental factors modified. The

## Abstract This study tests if the coarse particulate organic matter (CPOM) mass was related to the invertebrate community structure in riffles and sandy pools of a fourth‐order reach of a stream after partialling out the effects of physical characteristics of the sampled patches. Diversity and st
## Abstract In applied river ecology it is implicitly assumed that community structure is a surrogate for functional properties. To test this hypothesis, 26 sites were sampled for macroinvertebrates in a Central Italian stream system impacted by 13 trout farms (1 upstream and 1 downstream site per
