Freshwater sponges as indicators of floodplain lake environments and of river rocky bottoms in Central Amazonia

Two complementary surveys were carried out in the same area of the Araguaia River Basin, Central Amazonia, Brazil: one of sponges in the low water, the other of the water quality in the dry and the high water. Two environments were selected for the sponge survey: an exposed rocky bottom stretch of t...
