The zooplankton community in a small, hypertrophic mediterranean reservoir (Foix reservoir, NE Spain)
A small hypertrophic reservoir (Foix Reservoir, Spain) was sampled from March 1997 to January 2000 to document the composition and spatial and temporal variability of the zooplankton assemblage. Twenty five species of Rotifera, 10 of Cladocera, and one species of copepod (Acanthocyclops robustus (Sa...
