The beetles are an important part of the insect fauna of most aquatic ecosystems. However, with the exception of the Elmidae, they have not been used extensively for water quality evaluation. This is due in large part to the fact that most water beetle adults and larvae, with the exception of the elmids, some adult Dryopidae and larvae Psephenidae, are air-breather and do not depend on dissolved oxygen in water for respiration. However, many beetles appear to live and reproduce in restricted aquatic habitats, thus can colonize the smallest water bodies, and the loss of those habitats may mean a loss of those species. And, if a high diversity of species is indicative of good water quality, then the high diversity of beetles in an aquatic env...
