Background. The evaluation of the integrity of a river involves the analysis of different aspects of its environment and the ecosystem itself. Goal. In the present study, the abiotic and biotic quality of the Cupatitzio river was characterized using multiple indicators. Methods. An analysis of the coverage of the different land uses in the basin was carried out, 16 physicochemical variables of the water were measured, and aquatic invertebrates were identified and quantified in 20 monitoring sites. Water quality index (NSF-WQI) and biological indices (Shannon-Wiener, Pielou, and Indicator Species Analysis) were calculated, and multivariate statistical methods were applied. Results. Most of the sites present an important coverage of human set...
