Macrophytes assemblages in mountain lakes of Huerquehue National Park (39°S, Araucanía Region, Chile)

The lakes studied (Tinquilco, Verde, Toro, Chico) are located in the Huerquehue National Park (39°08'S, 71°40'W), Chile. An inventory of the aquatic and riparian species was performed between December 2005 and March 2006. A null model analysis was done to determine the existence of regulat...
