Abstract:
The use of biological models for freshwater quality assessment was one of the main objective of Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC), due to their ability for longterm retaining both structurally and functionally, the direct and indirect effects of pressure factors. One of the most appropriate biological models are the benthic invertebrates. They are very heterogeneous taxonomic group that presents a broad spectrum of responses to each form of stress, including chemical pollution and morphological changes of aquatic habitat.
