Figure 12.8 A collage of some of the components of the plankton community in the pelagic zone. From top to bottom, left to right: a complex chemical medium; bacteria; piscivorous birds, like the anhinga; a diverse phytoplankton; a water mass with relatively long retention time; planktivorous fish, like the coregonids, which filter the water for zooplankters; crustacean zooplankton (e.g. Daphnia pulex); and, rarely, fish‐eating bats.
