Abundance dynamics of crustaceans in different littoral biotopes of the “Szigetköz” side arm system, River Danube, Hungary

Summary

Within the respective side arms, several, mosaik-like biotope-types can be described, according to their crustacean communities, being in dynamic connection with each other. Dependent from the water level fluctuations, the composition and numbers of crustacean communities are strongly influenced by the duration and measure of hydrological changes.
