Figure 7 in Macroinvertebrate communities along the Velika Morava River

Figure 7. DCA biplot based on the matrix of 82 taxa and 20 samples displaying 36% of total variance (first DCA axis, 22.3%; second DCA axis, 13.6%). Down-weighting of rare species and the WA method were performed. Ellipse shows the autumn/VM3/VM5 group of samples/taxa. The names of the taxa and species are abbreviated as follows: Bae rho – Baetis rhodani, Pot lut – Potamanthus luteus, Hep fu – Kageronia fuscogrisea, Hep sp. – Heptagenia sp., Eph ig – Ephemerella ignita, Hyd sp – Hydropsyche sp.. etc. (full list of abbreviations is provided in the Appendix). The samples are coded as follows: 1- VM1_7, 2-VM2_7, 3-VM3_7, 4-VM4_7, 5-VM5_7, 6-VM1_8, 7-VM2_8, etc.
