The substantial salinity tolerance demonstrated by many aquatic invertebrates appears to conflict with the no tion of ecological diversity in such species-rich taxa as the Chironomidae, Ostracoda, and Cladocera, which would predict more narrow niche separation, a clear unimodal response to salinity change, and consistent patterns of species replacement along the salinity gradient.
