  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;Didymosphenia geminata&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;, a relatively new aquatic nuisance species that can form extensive, mucilaginous mats on stream substrates, was reported from Rapid Creek, South Dakota in 2002. To examine the association between&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;D. geminata&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;and the invertebrate community in Rapid Creek, macroinvertebrates were quantified using three gear types in the fall of 2006.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;D. geminata&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;was present at two of four sites sampled (range = 5.53 to 809.68 g m&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&amp;minus;2&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;dry mass). At each site, invertebrates were collected using dip nets, Surber samplers, and drift nets. The combined percentage of Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera in areas with&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;D. geminata&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;was lower (41%) than in areas without&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;D. geminata&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;(76%). Diptera abundance was higher at sites with&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;D. geminata&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;than in sites where&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;D. geminata&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;was absent.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
