Estimated percentage of taxonomic coverage achieved at each stream by dividing the observed number of taxa over the extrapolated number of taxa expected based on Chao’s equation for each sampling month. Grey lines connect the same stream over time. The amount of ‘undetected’ taxa was significantly different between identification levels (F2,152 = 7.5, p < 0.001) and sampling months (F2,152 = 5.26, p < 0.01)
