Användning av Chironomidae (Diptera) Utanpå Flytande PUPP exuviae som en snabb Bioassessment protokoll för vattenförekomster

Rapid bioassessment protocols using benthic macroinvertebrates are often used to monitor and assess water quality. An efficient protocol involves collections of Chironomidae surface-floating pupal exuviae (SFPE). Here, techniques for field collection, laboratory processing, slide mounting, and identification of Chironomidae SFPE are described.
