Crustacean zooplankton species richness in Chilean lakes and ponds (23°-51°S)

Crustacean zooplankton species richness in Chilean lakes and ponds (23°-51°S)

Chilean inland-water ecosystems are characterized by their low species-level biodiversity. This study analyses available data on surface area, maximum depth, conductivity, chlorophyll-α concentration, and zooplankton crustacean species number in lakes and ponds between 23° and 51°S. The stu...
