Özet

Plankton samples were collected at monthly intervals from Lake Terkos, Turkey, between April 2000 and March 2001. The numerical density of the Cladocera, Cercopagis pengoi and Cornigerius meaticus was studied according to month, season, and stations in this lake, which is a coastal lake of the Black Sea. Average densities were determined as 3789 ind/m(3) for Cercopagis pengoi and 8771 ind/m3 for Cornigerius meaticus. The maximum level of C. pengoi was in May at 20degreesC and for C. meaticus this occurred in September (18degreesC). The densities of these two species vary greatly, depending on temperature.
