The Hindmarsh River, near the Hindmarsh Weir is one of the most
diverse sites in South Australia with more than 170 aquatic invertebrates
collected from this site between 1994 and 2004. Many of these
requiring the cool, flowing water and rocky substrate present
at this site.
The mayfly Atalophlebia is one invertebrate that likes the cool
flowing water and can be found clinging to the underside of cobbles
in the Hindmarsh River.
