The eight species involved are the following: European hare (Lepus europaeus), European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus), wild boar (Sus scrofa), and red deer (Cervus elaphus) were all introduced from Europe (Austria, France, Germany, and Spain) to either or both Chilean and Argentine Patagonia. American beaver (Castor canadensis) and muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus) were introduced from Canada to Argentine Tierra del Fuego Island (shared with Chile). The American mink (Mustela vison) apparently was brought from the United States of America to both Chilean and Argentine Patagonia, independently. The native grey fox (Pseudalopex griseus) was introduced from Chilean to Argentine Tierra del Fuego.

Above all, my greatest thanks go out to my promotor, Dr. Sebastien Bertrand, for his great support and supervision on my thesis. I would like to thank him for giving me the opportunity to do this highly interesting research and for all the sharing of thoughts, his good advice and suggestions regarding the subject. Moreover, many times he helped with explaining everything and assisted me during my investigation. Based on the data obtained by Dr. Sebastien Bertrand, Zakaria Ghazoui and Astrid Bartels, I was able to perform this study so therefore I would like to express gratitude for them for the expeditions to Chile to collect all samples. I would also like to thank the Renard Centre of Marine Geology for the usage of the equipment at their laboratory. With regards to the support in the laboratory during the measurements, my thanks go out to Daniëlle Schram who was always present to answer my questions in the sedimentology lab.

El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar si en esta área existen zonas de endemismo de macroinvertebrados bentónicos fluviales y analizar los patrones de diversidad de organismos de alta (Plecoptera) y baja vagilidad (Aeglidae). Entre el 2006 y 2009 se muestrearon 183 sitios entre 42°50’ y 54°43’ S, focalizándose en las principales cuencas. Los muestreos se realizaron con una red “kicknet”, cubriendo una superficie de fondo de 8 m2. En toda el área se registraron 30 especies de Plecoptera y dos de Aeglidae. Se identificó una zona de endemismo en la cuenca del río Aysén, sustentada por el plecóptero Ceratoperla fazi y el cangrejo Aegla neuquensis.
