ABSTRACT
This study aimed to determine the species spectrum and abundance of zoopleuston in five small water
bodies in different types of peatlands in Roztocze National Park in 2012. The highest number of taxa and density
occurred in transitional bogs. The results of DCA analysis showed distinct grouping of zoopleuston communities,
depending on bog type. The studied group of organisms had a strong gradient depending on the bog
type correlated with the concentration of chlorophyll-a, suspension, and concentrations of inorganic nutrients
in the habitat.
