VIRTUAL STREAM VISIT: Native Stream Ecosystem
4. Stream Biota - Plants and Animals
Take a look at the native animals on the Meet the Critters page on this site and the Hawaii Native Stream Animals web site to answer the following questions.
a) What kind of plants form the basis of the food web in Hawaii's streams?
b) Draw a picture of the stream labeling an upper stream, middle stream, and lower stream/ estuary. Write the Hawaiian name, scientific name, and sketch a picture of the stream animal next to its corresponding stream location. Don't forget to draw the stream animal's food source.
