For example, 1 of 1 means there is only 1 pot for a particular Distance, 1 of 2 means it is the first pot out of 2 for a particular Distance, and so on (Field type: replicate)<b>ID</b>: The ID number for the pots, each Distance can consists of 1 to 3 pots of samples and each pot has its own ID (Field type: id)<b>HabitatType</b>: Habitat type (Field type: categorical)<b>HabitatTypeReplicate</b>: Replicate IDs for the habitat types. For example, the ID for stream 0m at 40-50m as the first replicate for LF/ Logged Forest is LF1.1, while for stream 0m at 20-30m is LF1.2, and so on (Field type: replicate)<b>SortDate</b>: Dates of when sortings were done (Field type: comments)<b>Family</b>: Family of the bugs collected (Field type: taxa)<b>Group</b>: Groups of the bugs based on body forms: 1) CGP (Cylindrostethinae, Gerrinae, and Ptilomerinae), 2) Halobatinae, and 3) Veliidae (Field type: taxa)<b>LifeStage</b>: Life stage of the bugs collected: either Juvenile (J) or Adult (A) (Field type: categorical trait)<b>Length</b>: The body length of the bugs collected (rounded) (Field type: numeric trait)<b>LengthRange</b>: The body length range of the bugs collected (Field type: id)<b>PredictedBiomass</b>: The predicted biomass of the bugs collected, calculated using power regression equations. Zeros indicate groups for which no individuals were present. a.

Group Halobatinae = the same as above but with 0.072 and 2.218 as the coefficient a and b respectively, c. Group Veliidae = the same as above but with 0.041 and 2.32 as the coefficient a and b respectively.
