Diel horizontal distribution of microcrustaceans and predators throughout a year in a shallow neotropical lake Distribuição horizontal de microcrustáceos e predadores ao longo do ano em um lago neotropical
The focus of this study is to investigate if microcrustaceans undergo diel horizontal migration (DHM) in a tropical shallow lake on a yearly basis and analyse the adaptive value regarding predation. Abundance of invertebrate predators, chaoborid larvae and water mites, and microcrustaceans (cladocer...
