close to the mouth at Laguna Querococha. This short, winding runnel was characterised by shallow, slowflowing water with sediment dominated by dark detritus. Surrounding grassy vegetation was low, so there was no shade and insolation was very intense. Thus we suppose that the shallow water heated up, providing for a warm microclimate which is important at an altitude of almost

males tend to concentrate at reproductive habitats, whereas females spend much time at a distance and only move to the reproductive habitats to mate and oviposit, this might indicate that neither males nor females usually move away from this runnel because other suitable habitats are extremely rare. We found almost all of them perched in the tall Ichu grass vegetation in the vicinity of the runnel.
