Freshwater invertebrate fauna of Nuku Hiva island (French Polynesia) : data during a rainy season

The streams of Nuku-Hiva Island, Marquesas Archipelago, were sampled during the rainy season in June 1990. The invertebrate fauna was scarce and had a low diversity. Gastropoda and Decapoda accounted for the major part of the biomass. Insects were represented by Simuliidae, Chironomidae and a few Ceratopogonidae, Coleoptera and Zygoptera. Oligochaeta were numerically important. The role of insularity and the effects of hydraulic conditions on this fauna are briefly discussed. (Résumé d'auteur)
