The aim of this examination was to study the impact of the physical parameters, understood as spatial and morphological features, of two macrophyte habitats created by Chara tomentosa and Typha angustifolia on the Rotifera and Crustacea communities of three shallow lakes with extensive macrophyte cover. There were 161 zooplankton species in total identified from three lakes, with over 60% of species common among all lakes. Species richness varied between the sampling stations, with lowest values within the open water zone and highest among macrophyte stands. Significant differences in zooplankton densities between particular stations for all groups of zooplankton were observed, with the highest values within the most diverse and complex habitat – the Chara bed. Furthermore, the distribution of pelagic species between particular stations differed significantly in the case of copepods, with the highest abundance also in the stonewort beds.
