Appendix A. List of taxa found in experiment 1. The category "nauplii" includes unidentifiable cyclopoid copepodid stages. The column labeled "#" is the average number of individuals of each taxon introduced in the inoculum. Where no number is shown, that taxon was absent from the inoculum. For each pond, "n" indicates that taxon was present in the initial samples from the pond, "s" indicates that the taxon appeared at least once in the controls or in the pond outside the bags after the pre-treatment sampling date, "i" indicates that taxon was found at least once in the invasion treatment (but never in the control or pond samples).
