在各种水生栖息地的动物种群的研究通常包括一些参考存在于植被上的动物(Carpenter 1927; Whitehead 1935; Moon 1936; Jones 1949; Smyly 1957),但很少尝试对植物上的动物进行定量调查。从对池塘和湖泊中植被的研究中有一定数量的证据表明,不同的植物庇护着不同的动物(Krecker 1939; Edmondson 1944; Bryden 1952; Smyly 1952; Rosine 1955)。此外,克赖克和罗森的定量研究还表明,具有非常细的叶的植物比具有简单的全叶的植物拥有更大和更多样的动物种群。很少有证据表明溪流中不同的植物拥有不同的动物群。到目前为止,观察一直是定性的性质(屠夫,Pentelow & Woodley 1931; Whitehead 1935)。本文描述了一个小白垩溪中四种水生植物上动物的分布和丰度的定量调查。该溪流源于汉普郡罗姆塞下方的河流测试(地图参考:Orchid Survey sheet 180,参考编号350170)。一条长约9米的溪流,包括毛茛(Ranunculus fluitans Lam.)的河床,宽果水马齿,婆婆纳并选择苔草属(Carexsp.t)植物作为调查点。这些植物在冬季的几个月里并没有枯死。
Studies of animal populations in various aquatic habitats have usually included some reference to the animals present on the vegetation (Carpenter 1927; Whitehead 1935; Moon 1936; Jones 1949; Smyly 1957) but few quantitative surveys of the animals on the plants have been attempted. There is a certain amount of evidence from the studies of vegetation in ponds and lakes, that different plants shelter different animals (Krecker 1939; Edmondson 1944; Bryden 1952; Smyly 1952; Rosine 1955). The quantitative investigations by Krecker and Rosine showed in addition, that plants with very finely divided leaves possessed larger and more varied animal populations than those with simple entire leaves. There is less evidence that different plants in streams possess different faunas. To date, observations have been of a qualitative nature (Butcher, Pentelow & Woodley 1931; Whitehead 1935). The following paper describes a quantitative investigation of the distribution and abundance of animals on four aquatic plants in a small chalk stream. The stream arises from the River Test below Romsey, Hampshire (Map reference: Ordnance Survey sheet 180, ref. 350170). An area of stream approximately 9 m long, containing beds of Ranunculus fluitans Lam., Callitriche platycarpa Kutz., Veronica beccabunga L. and a Carex sp.t was chosen as the site for the survey. The plants did not die down during the winter months.
