## Abstract The predatory impact of __Chaoborus flavicans__ on zooplankton, especially on daphniids, is often regarded as a crucial factor in the propagation or repeal of top‐down effects in lakes. Therefore consumption rates and prey selectivity of __C. flavicans__ were determined in mesotrophic L
