Abstract
This taxonomic study of zooplankton was conducted in a Mahrouqa lake in the Alshati area of southern Libya from January to December 2021, We applied the method of direct microscopic examination and tracking of the morphological characteristics of Zooplankton, based on keys of classifications to identify them according to the taxonomic ranks from the Kingdom to the specie, Three phyla of zooplankton had been identified: Porotozo and Rotifera Arthropoda, two of which belong to the Porotozo protozoa phylum, Followed by Rotifer phylum, which includes 13 genera, 11 of which belong to the class of monoclonal Monogonta and two belonging to the class of mentalities Bdelloidea, where the Rotifer courses the most diverse phylum in this lake, as well as found 11 genus of arthropoda, which included three classes: branched horns Cladocera and Copepoda and Ostracoda, while found one genus of the phylum Mites Akari, in addition of two species of insect larvae.
