Population of Chironomidae (Insecta: Diptera) in UNIMAS Lake and its Potential as a Culture Speceies in Laboratory Condition

The study of chironomid populations and its relationship with water quality was conducted in UNIMAS Lake. The objectives of this study are to determine the density of chironomid larvae in UNIMAS Lake and its potential as culture species in the laboratory conditions. Sediments sampling were conduct...
