| Fauna[edit] | WIKI |
| [34] 73.5% (50 species) of the total freshwater gastropod fauna appear to be endemic to the Lake Ohrid basin. | WIKI |
| [34] Whereas the endemic species list cited above is based on morphological and ecological characteristics, some recent applications of molecular genetic techniques underline the difference of the fauna from common European taxa, as well as the old age of the lake. | WIKI |
| Although the effects of these human impacts have not been evaluated in detail they are of great concern, as the shallow water sites are particularly rich in endemic bottom fauna and form important spawning grounds for several endemic fish species. | WIKI |
| On the other hand, higher nutrient levels have reduced the water transparency, as well as the oxygen availability in the deep water and at the lake bottom, two properties which are requisite for the endemic flora and fauna. | WIKI |
| Lake Ohrid is a superlative natural phenomenon, providing refuge for numerous endemic and relict freshwater species of flora and fauna dating from the tertiary period. | UNESCO |
| As a result of its geographic isolation and uninterrupted biological activity, Lake Ohrid provides a unique refuge for numerous endemic and relict freshwater species of flora and fauna. | UNESCO |
| The Institute for Hydrobiology in Ohrid is responsible for the continuous monitoring of the Lake Ohrid ecosystem, the research and care for Lake Ohridxe2x80x99s flora and fauna, as well as the management of the fish hatchery, also to enrich the Lakexe2x80x99s fish stocks. | UNESCO |
