At the beginning of June 2019, the FishForLife project implementation team carried out a second campaign to take biological samples of benthic macronoinvertebrates from the Gilort River drainage basin. The first campaign took place in September 2018 and included 8 sampling points.Laboratory processing of the samples collected in the first campaign led to the identification of 12 major groups of aquatic macronoinvertebrates, namely: Gastropoda, Oligochaeta, Nematoda, Turbellaria, Hydrachnidia, Crustacea (Amphipoda), Coleoptera, Diptera (with families: Athericidae, Chironomidae, Ceratopogonidae, Empididae, Limoniidae, Simuliidae, Tabanidae, Tipulidae, Dolicopodidae), Ephemeroptera, Odonata, Plecoptera and Trichoptera.
