The genus appears to feed almost exclusively on allochthonous material, primarily insects falling onto the water surface.
12.
The central ranges are covered by in-place and allochthonous ( displaced ) Cretaceous to Oligocene rocks.
13.
It is a composite slump with proximal and distal allochthonous sediment masses separated by a large glide plane scar.
14.
The rocks that form the Insular Super-Terrane are allochthonous meaning they are not related to the North American continent.
15.
In limnology, allochthonous sources of carbon or nutrients come from outside the aquatic system ( such as plant and soil material ).
16.
In streams and small lakes, allochthonous sources of carbon are dominant while in large lakes and the ocean, autochthonous sources dominate.
17.
According to the RCC, low ordered sites are small shaded streams where allochthonous inputs of CPOM are a necessary resource for consumers.
18.
Most of the rocks east of the line from Papatea Bay to Waipiro Bay, and rocks just north of Whatatutu are allochthonous.
19.
Archaean plate tectonics did not take place on mature crust and as such the presence of thrust-in allochthonous greenstone belts is expected.
20.
The vast majority of lakes and ponds in the taiga ecoregion are oligotrophic, and have much higher levels of allochthonous versus autochthonous matter.
