abstract: The work present the taxonomic composition and abundance of macrozoobenthos in three humic lakes, each undergoing different stages in the process of humification. The potential influence of habitat conditions was defined, modified under the influence of the humic substances, on biodiversity and the number of benthic invertebrates. Fish were also researched in an attempt to define the possibility of their influence on the benthic fauna.
