Samples collected with apparatus consisting of a series of pipes filled with gravel, driven into a streambed, and then opened for lateral colonization, confirm that invertebrates occur deep in the substratum: between 16 and 18 animals were found in each 600 ml from 13.5 cm down to at least 50 cm. Samplers buried in a trench dug into the true bank under the soil do not confirm studies suggesting that stream animals occur far from the water’s edge under the banks: only a few truly aquatic animals were found 50 cm into the bank, although some occurred as far as 2 m from the water.
