                        Habitat conditions may shape the abundance and 
community structure of planktonic fauna. In this study, we investigated 
whether reservoirs with different locations and drainage basins also 
differed in the structure and abundance of zooplankton. The studies were
 conducted in 2010-2011 between June and October in the Vistula Lagoon 
and Lake Lebsko. The zooplankton was dominated mainly by small eurytopic
 organisms belonging to Rotifera. Plankton crustaceans showed a limited 
diversity of species. Copepods were predominant, while Cladocera were 
observed sporadically in more freshwater habitats. In the first 
experimental season (2010), the Vistula Lagoon and Lake Lebsko showed a 
comparable taxonomic structure and an abundance of investigated 
zooplankton; a substantially higher density was recorded in Lake Lebsko 
in 2011, although the taxonomic diversity was higher in the Vistula 
Lagoon. Zooplankton biomass in a given season differed between these 2 
water bodies, but not statistically significantly. The differences in 
location in the investigated water bodies impacted zooplankton 
assemblage structure and abundance. The drainage basin type (urbanized 
areas, forested areas, waterlogged areas) appeared to influence 
zooplankton species richness significantly.
