| Description | Although many studies have dealt with spring invertebrate faunas, comprehensive research on dipteran fauna is still rather rare. This is despite the fact that Diptera are known to be the most diverse group of spring aquatic insects including a high proportion of specialized taxa. Dipteran fauna (excl. Chironomidae, Simuliidae) was studied on 62 small, treeless spring fens spanning from extremely mineral-rich tufa-forming calcareous fens to mineral-poor acidic Sphagnum-fens in 2006 and 2010–2012. |
