Samples were collected from May 2009 to May 2010, and fixed with 4% formalina. The numeric density (ind.m-3) was obtained from subsequent sub-samples (1 mL). The study recorded 19 zooplankton families. Rotifers showed higher species richness (81 species), followed by cladocerans (3 species) and various forms of copepods and other organisms. Higher zooplankton means of numeric density was found in Novo Lake, with rotifers (1879 ind.m-3), cladocerans (207 ind.m-3), copepods (870 ind.m-3). Diversity and numeric density were similar to other Neotropical aquatic ecosystems. 2013 artículo científico 1561-0837 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=195029472005 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1950 Revista Peruana de Biología application/pdf Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos Revista Peruana de Biología (Perú) Num.2 Vol.20
