Abstract
•DNA metabarcoding is an emergent tool for biodiversity assessments.•Benthic eukaryotic assemblages were characterized using18S-V9 rDNA.•Diatoms, water molds, holozoans, green algae, fungi responded to stream impairment.•This approach may be recommended for biomonitoring of stream eukaryotic biota.
