How to determine the water quality of a river ?
I – Thanks to fish II – Thanks to macro invertebrates
I - Fish
INDIAN OCEAN Fish migration Reunion island
Larvas Growth Reproduction and larval life
Differents methods of sampling
How to know Reunion island rivers quality through the study of fish population ?
Station to be qualified Sampling with electricity
Characteristics Reference models
GOOD OR NOT ?
II- Macro invertebrates
St-Etienne River
Take macro invertebrates in the river
Find the macro invertebrates

Taking Photos
Midge Larva
Caddisfly Larva

Give a quality mark for the river
8 Points 1 Point
4 points 3 Points 3 Points
Mark
4 + 6 + 8 + 1 = 19
Our rivers seem to be in a good condition!
Interpretation :
But here we only studied micro-invertebrates.
Conclusion :
Micro-invertebrates : GOOD STATE. But what about fishes and micro-flora?
3 BIO-INDICATORS:
- Macro-invertebrates
- Fishes
- Micro-flaura
In Reunion island :
