This study was carried out to determine some physico-chemical characteristics and rotifers of Camligoze Dam Lake located at northeastern part of Turkey. For this aim, water and rotifer samples were taken from 2 station between May 16 and November 16, 2007 in Camligoze Dam Lake. A total of 11 rotifer species; Brachionus plicatilis, Kellicottia longispina, Notholca acuminata, Notholca squamula, Colurella uncinata, Lecane Tuna, Lecane lunaris, Cephalodella gibba, Synchaeta oblonga, Synchaeta pectinata and Polyarthra dolichoptera were determined in the Camligoze Dam Lake. In the water samples, totally 5 physico-chemical parameters; water temperature, electrical conductivity, pH, secchi disc depth and dissolved oxygen were analyzed.
