Benthic Macroinvertebrates
Determination and identification by species of the existing benthic community in sediment samples
Communities of benthic macroinvertebrates have been widely used to assess the biological quality of ecosystems. This is due to its great taxonomic diversity, associated with a marked sensitivity to ecological factors (e.g. specificity for certain habitats; differential sensitivities to various types of human pressures - organic contamination, acidification, morphological degradation.).
