Association Of Aquatic Insects To Macrophytes In An Agricultural Drainage Ditch, Kevin King, John Flypaa, Henry W. Quade

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

The aquatic insects associated with five species of aquatic macrophytes were collected and identified from a drainage ditch in Le Suer County. A total of 21,160 specimens from eight orders were recovered with Diptera being the dominant. Tests of association, using the Coefficient of Community and Percent Similarity revealed a unique community associated with Potamogeton nodosus. Further, the authors found that the same information generated from the study could have been accomplished without the detailed taxonomy.
