Aquatic Macroinvertebrate Data Collected from Kansas City Metro Area Streams, 2011-2013

The data represent counts and presence of stream-dwelling aquatic macroinvertebrate communities in nine watersheds within the non-connected stormwater region in Kansas City, Missouri. Samples were collected from 3 stream habitats (coarse substrate in cobble riffles, depositional non-flow habitat in pools, and rootmats along shoreline areas). Macroinvertebrate organisms were enumerated and identified to the lowest practical taxonomic unit.
