Invasive species are a major threat to biodiversity globally. In freshwater ecosystems, invasive macrophytes are one of the most significant hazards. This study evaluated the impacts of the non-native macrophyte Crassula helmsii on macroinvertebrate assemblages in ponds in Dartmoor National Park, UK. Sampled ponds differed in the extent of invasion, being uninvaded, partially invaded and dominated by Crassula. Samples were taken from macrophyte stands using a hand net and taxa identified to the lowest taxonomic level possible in the laboratory. Assemblages were compared using univariate and multivariate approaches. Taxonomic richness and Shannon-Wiener Index did not differ significantly between invasion categories. However, abundance and ev...
