Functional Feeding Group (FFG) of Aquatic Macroinvertebrate in Middle Reach of Kerian River Basin of North Malaysia Peninsula

Abstract: Highlights • Different patterns of FFG distribution reflect the habitat conditions of the river. • Predators, mainly Odonata, Hemiptera and Coleoptera, were the most common group in middle reach of Kerian River Basin.

“…The influence of disturbances on the distribution and abundance of functional feeding groups in habitats was largely explored in previous studies, by reflecting the state of the habitat and water quality ( Abdul and Rawi 2019 ), the FFGs approach has been effectively applied to different aquatic ecosystems in Latin America ( Cummins et al 2005 , Gonçalves and De Menezes 2011 , Cortés-Guzmán et al 2021 ), Europe and Africa ( Paunović et al 2006 , Moyo and Richoux 2017 , Mangadze et al 2019 , Addo-Bediako 2021 , Edegbene et al 2022 ) and Morocco ( Nahli et al 2023 ). The last work and the given study present a major contribution in terms of assessing the functional structure of aquatic communities as an innovative biomonitoring approach in Morocco .…”

“…Stout (1989) recommended that shredders are hindered in tropical stations by the higher extent of poisonous dense tannins in the leaves of the tropical plants. Abdul and Che Salmah (2019) reported that the abundance of predators increments step by step in streams with a high measure of prey. Predators like stoneflies and some trichopterans can survive in cool headwaters.…”
