Abundance And Diversity Of Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, Trichoptera (Insecta) In Relation To Environmental Quality Of Upstream Rivers In Kedah, Malaysia

A relatively rich assemblage of Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera and Trichoptera (EPT) (17,315) (Insecta) immatures were collected from Tupah, Batu Hampar and Teroi rivers in the Gunung Jerai Forest Reserve. From monthly collections starting September 2007 until August 2008 using a kick-net sampling techni...
