This dataset was gathered as part of a Scottish Natural Heritage contract in 2015. It provides the results of invertebrate surveys designed to inform Site Condition Monitoring at Carrick Ponds SSSI. These surveys targeted the notified invertebrate assemblage feature (Donacia obscura, Helophorus strigifrons), but other taxa were also recorded.

Purpose
