An update of the distribution of Boeckella gracilis (Daday, 1902) (Crustacea, Copepoda) in the Araucania region (38°S), Chile, and a null model for understanding its species associations in its habitat Actualización de la distribución de Boeckella gracilis (Daday, 1902) (Crustacea, Copepoda) en la región de la Araucanía (38°S), Chile, y un modelo nulo para comprender sus asociaciones específicas en su habitat

The crustacean zooplankton of Chilean inland waters are characterized by abundant calanoid copepods, mainly from the gemís Boeckella. The present study aims to update the distribution of Boeckella gracilis in the inland waters of the Araucania region (38-39°S) and to use null model analysis to under...
