ABSTRACT Seven sites were examined in the Challhuaco-Ñireco system, located reserve of Nahuel Huapi National Park, however part catchment is urbanized, being San Carlos de Bariloche (150,000 inhabitants) placed lower basin. Physico-chemical variables measured and benthic macroinvertebrates collected during three consecutive years at seven from headwater to river outlet. Sites near source characterised by Plecoptera, Ephemeroptera, Trichoptera Diptera, whereas close mouth dominated...

The Puyehue-Cordón Caulle Volcanic Complex eruption occurred on June 4, 2011 (2236 m a.s.l. 40°32′S, 72°7′W). As a consequence, wide areas of Argentina were covered by volcanic ash. In order to investigate the effects ashfall chironomid assemblages, we conducted study at Ñireco River in southwestern part Natural Reserve Nahuel Huapi National Park that crosses city San Carlos de Bariloche, Río Negro, Argentina. We assessed changes assemblage attributes and 18 biological traits, comparing...
