Data provided are primary data collected from Mill Stream in Dorset, UK, over three seasons (Spring, Summer and Autumn) in 1992. Data were collected using a 15-second kick sample (900 µm pond net) in four discrete substrate habitats (gravel, sand, silt and perennial vegetation (marginal perennial emergent Phragmites sp.)). Data resolved predominately to species level and are published in Ecology and Evolution at DOI: 10.1002/ece3.10564.
