Relation Central Utah Project; Western Waters Digital Library; numbers but are selectively preyed on by their predators 8 using multivariate analysis and clustering on the intensive zooplankton data we attempted to find a correlation between substrate cype type hype gype and littoral zooplankton community however zooplankton 11 community 11community structure found within the littoral zone of utah lake could not be tied to specific substrate types most zooplankton species were found at all sample sites different substrates for each sampling period due to the large variance in zooplankton densities found in the littoral littora kittora 1 area between sites of similar and different substrates our comparisons of community similarity indicate a very patchy distributional pattern of zooplankton associated with the littoral area the conclusion would seem to hold for all lake regions 9 all zooplankton species present in open waters except one were found in the shallow waters of the littoral sites tables 2c ac 3 through 2c ac 5 this indicates that lake position is not as important in determining zooplankton community structure as it is for benthic communities the failure to find the species leptodora kindtii is the result of both sampling technique and the organisms low abundance at all locations LITTORAL communities OF UTAH LAKE results of littoral community studies in phase I 1 zooplankton and benthos studies the term littoral refers to the shoreline area three separate littoral studies were undertaken the first during october 1978 barnes et al phase I 1 report 8 1981 the second during may 1979 barnes et al phase I 1 report 3 1981 and the third during july september and november 1979 barnes et al phase I 1 reports 6 and 7 1981 for both the october 1978 and may 1979 samples ten rocks were sampled for the total numbers of organisms and in sand areas a coring device was used to take ten samples all statistical comparisons were 2 64
