Samples were taken from the various substratum types using a Surber net. Most of the variability of the trait-environment relationship was explained by increasing temperature and conductivity along the downstream gradient. Whilst agriculture at higher elevations did not have a great influence on the functional trait composition of macroinvertebrate communities, agriculture and urbanization at lower elevations generated significant deviations from predictable functional structures. Owing to the natural downstream decrease in community diversity in streams of the study region, entire taxa and/or functional groups were more likely to be wiped out in response to anthropogenic perturbations at lower elevations. Despite human activities, climate-related variables in arid lands play a major role on&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/earth-and-planetary-sciences/hydrological-regime&quot; title=&quot;Learn more about hydrological regimes from ScienceDirect's AI-generated Topic Pages&quot;&gt;hydrological regimes&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;that effect instream habitats, water chemistry, and macroinvertebrate communities. Given the environmental constraints in arid-land streams of North Africa, even slight increases in anthropogenic pressure can have negative effects on the taxonomic and functional composition of macroinvertebrate communities.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>32</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Imène Benzina</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biodiversité des macroinvertébrés benthiques et évaluation multiparamétrique de la qualité des cours d&amp;rsquo;eau dans la réserve de biosphère du Belezma région aride du Nord Est Algérien.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sciences de la nature et de la vie, Université Oum El Bouaghi, Algérie</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2019</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://bib.univ-oeb.dz:8080/jspui/handle/123456789/9128</style></url></web-urls></urls><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PhD</style></work-type></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Imène Benzina</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Abdelkrim Si Bachir</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cherif Ghazi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Frédéric Santoul</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Régis Céréghino</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">How altitudinal gradient affects the diversity and composition of benthic insects in arid areas streams of northern East Algeria?</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biologia</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2019</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://doi.org/10.2478/s11756-019-00326-8</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">75</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">567–577</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">I Benzina</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A SiBachir</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">C Ghazi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">F Ghougali</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Diversity, structure, and organization of the Ephemoroptera population in the water streams of the Belezma National Park (Batna&amp;ndash;
