| Description | In order to study the species composition and habitat requirements of leech assemblages, 109 sites of running and stagnant waters (lotic and lenitic habitats) were sampled in the Czech Republic, in the years 2007 to 2010. The morphological characteristics of the sampling site, chemical parameters of the water, biological characteristics including the prey availability and climatic data were available for each site. Leeches were collected by hand, counted and identified. In total, seventeen species were recorded. Environmental and species data were used in the analyses. |
