Fig. 2From: Hidden diversity: DNA metabarcoding reveals hyper-diverse benthic invertebrate communitiesThe average taxonomic richness per site in each category (conservation area - CA), n = 7, or farm, n = 13) over the sampling period (May, July, Sept, total n = 237). There was no significant effect of site type or sampling month on taxonomic richness for any group, though sampling month approach significance for chironomid OTUs (F1,36 = 3.12, p = 0.056).
