✦ Synopsis

Bottom invertebrate communities were compared along the western shoreline of a large oligotrophic lake (Bear Lake, Utah-Idaho). A technique of community ordination was used for the comparisons. Ordination indicated that differences among stations were associated with local differences in bottom type. The bottom type was apparently influenced by isolation from lake currents, nutrient additions, and increased amounts of fine sediments and organic matter. The amount of silt~ clay was the most important sediment factor affecting the invertebrate communities. Most communities were dominated by a small species of larval chironomid, Tanytarsus.
