Excerpt from Technical Report 116, Habitat Use by Fish ('O'opu), Snails (Hihiwai), Shrimp ('Opae) And Prawns in Two Streams on the Island of Moloka'i
The primary threat to native stream organisms throughout the state is the continuing loss and degradation of available stream habitats (maciolek 1977a, b). To properly manage these stream systems and to evaluate the impact of water diversions on the stream fauna, a better understanding of the baseline conditions, microhabitat use and community structure in these streams IS required.
