Freshwater fish community assessment using eDNA metabarcoding vs. capture-based methods: differences in efficiency and resolution coupled to habitat and ecology

Manuel Curto, Sofia Batista, Carlos D. Santos, Filipe Ribeiro, Sofia Nogueira, Diogo Ribeiro, Benjamin Prindle, Daniel Licari, Giulia Riccioni, Diogo Dias, Francisco Pina‐Martins, Sissel Jentoft, Ana Veríssimo, Maria Judite Alves, Hugo F. Gante

This study compares eDNA metabarcoding and electrofishing for assessing freshwater fish communities, finding similar species richness but differing compositions influenced by habitat and ecology.
