摘要
This report focuses on the possible influence of riparian vegetation on the composition and productivity of stream invertebrate fauna by concentrating on the role of decomposing matter in streams. Experiments were performed to determine decomposition rates of various leaf types, as well as on comparative survival and growth of selected stream invertebrates raised on single leaf types in artificial streams. A field survey was made of leaf types and invertebrates in local streams to discover any relationship between detrital and faunal composition.
