SAMPLING AND STATISTICS IN UNDERSTANDING DISTRIBUTION OF BLACK FLIES LARVAE (DIPTERA: SIMULIIDAE)
ABSTRACT – We demonstrate by example a standardized set of protocols for collecting both larval black flies (Diptera: Simuliidae) and the accompanying stream data. By following a few simple procedures, powerful data sets can be readily collected. The protocols have been developed as a result of samp...

| Summary: | ABSTRACT – We demonstrate by example a standardized set of protocols for collecting both larval black flies (Diptera: Simuliidae) and the accompanying stream data. By following a few simple procedures, powerful data sets can be readily collected. The protocols have been developed as a result of sampling over 500 streams in both North and South America. In addition, simple statistical procedures for producing species distribution models also are presented. |
