Pontogammarus robustoides collection and processing

Samples of Pontogammarus robustoides from the Daugava water reservoirs in Latvia were collected by qualitative sampling in May – September from 2014 to 2020 ( Fig. 1 ). The collected water sample material was preserved immediately after collecting by adding 98% ethanol to water sample hence the final concentration in the sample is ± 70%. After the splitting collected material into the species, the species resulting material was stored in 98% ethanol. ( Danancher et al. 2009, Ghareyazie & Mottaghi 2012, Harris et al. 2005).
