The effects of the physico-chemical parameters, which were measured in the lake, and the chlorophyl-a values of the macrophytes on the distribution of Rotifera species were also examined. As a result of the study totally 39 Rotifera species, belonging to 13 families, were found. Thirtytwo species on Thypha sp., 29 species on Nymphaea sp. and 21 species on Ceratophyllum sp. were determined. It was determined that Keratella tropica and Polyarthra remata prefered the Thypha sp., Trichotria pocillum and Lecane luna preferred the Nymphaea sp., Lecane quadridentata, Habrotrocha sp. and Rotoria rotatoria preferred the Ceratophyllum sp.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessLake GalaRotiferaMacrophytePhysico-Chemical ParametersCommunitiesAn investigation on the periphytic species of Rotifera in the Lake Gala (Turkey)Article6013139N/AWOS:000256665400003
