This report summarizes aquatic macroinvertebrate sampling from 4 streams within the North Fork of the Flathead River drainage in Glacier National Park. A total of 24 samples were taken at 8 sampling stations involving 4 streams (Akokala, Bowman, Logging, and Quartz Creeks). Macroinvertebrate data reported includes community dry-weight biomass, number of individuals per taxa, habitat and feeding preferences of individual taxa or species, community composition, and a Biotic Condition Index intended to indicate how close an aquatic ecosystem is to its potential condition. Physical stream parameter data and water chemistry data are also presented.
