Studies were carried out in pelagial and littoral zones twice a year: in spring and summer 1997. In most lakes Oligotrichida, mainly representing of the genera Strombidium, Strobilidium. Halteria and Prostomatida (Urotricha, Coleps) dominated. Densities of the community varied from 0.1 to 25.0 ind. ml-1 and from 0.04 to 33.4 ind. ml-1 in pelagial and littoral, respectively. Ciliate abundance was not dependent on trophic parameters. but there were correlations between ciliate abundance and abiotic parameters (pH, calcium and conductivity), though different in spring and summer.}, title={Ciliates in small humic lakes (Masurian Lakeland, Poland): relationship to acidity and trophic parameters}, type={Text}, URL={http://rcin.org.pl/Content/113449/PDF/WA058_91195_P2840-T48_Eko-Pol-A-Nr-3.pdf}, volume={48}, number={3}, journal={Polish Journal of Ecology}, publisher={Polish Academy of Sciences.
