Are the littoral zone conditions suitable for tropical planktonic microcrustaceans?
Experiments on life table parameters and growth rates indicated that food conditions are adequate for two cladocerans in the littoral zone of the lake. The short-term spatial distribution of microcrustaceans revealed preference or indifference to the littoral and limnetic zones, probably as part of their adaptive strategies in relation to other factors.
