A methodology to model environmental preferences of EPT taxa in the Machangara River Basin (Ecuador)
Rivers have been frequently assessed based on the presence of the EphemeropteraPlecopteraTrichoptera (EPT) taxa in order to determine the water quality status and develop conservation programs. This research evaluates the abiotic preferences of three families of the EPT taxa Baetidae, Leptoceridae and Perlidae in the Machangara River Basin located in the southern Andes of Ecuador. With this objective, using generalized linear models (GLMs), we analyzed the relation between the probability of occurrence of these pollution-sensitive macroinvertebrates families and physicochemical water quality c...
