Blank cells represent weeks without survey data. developed from second to third instars in early May, from third to fourth instars in late June, and from fourth to fifth instars in mid to late July (Figure 3). The final (fifth) instars typically entered prepupation in late July, by sealing themselves to the underside of rocks. Following the flood in February 1996, instar transitions were 2-3 weeks later than in 1995 and 1997 (Figure 3). The majority of D. gilvipes from all years were found on bedrock (Table 3). Dicosmoecus gilvipes densities were significantly higher in 1995 than in either 1996 or 1997 following the flood (Table 4). There were no significant differ- ences among caddisfly instar densities within either 1995 or 1996; densities in 1997 declined steadily beginning with third instars (Figure 4). Annual den- sities of all benthic macroinvertebrates were not sig-.
