Its natural habitats are freshwater lakes and freshwater marshes.

Lacustrine trout mainly inhabit large lakes with calm and stratified deep water, while riverine trout forms fluvial populations typically in large rivers but sometimes in shallower creeks and alpine streams, both still m

Synodontis petricola, sometimes known as the pygmy leopard catfish, is a species of upside-down catfish endemic to Burundi, Zambia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Tanzania where it is only known from Lake Tan

Aquatic salamander abundance has been shown to increase with increasing rock coverage, and decrease with increasing water velocity, and tend to prefer cold mountain streams and lakes.

They are found in tributaries and large lakes, naturally calm waters.

Amphiumas live in areas of shallow, heavily vegetated water in swamps, bayous, lakes, and ponds, as well as wet prairies.

The bald eagle occurs during its breeding season in virtually any kind of American wetland habitat such as seacoasts, rivers, large lakes or marshes or other large bodies of open water with an abundance of fish.

Unlike black swans, mute swans are usually strongly territorial, with just a single pair on smaller lakes, though in a few locations where a large area of suitable feeding habitat is found, they can be colonial.

Natural habitats include moist, lowland forests (subtropical and tropical), high-altitude shrubland (subtropical and tropical), moist montanes and rivers (subtropical and tropical), freshwater marshes, intermittent freshwater marshes, lakes and swamps.

It is also associated with rivers and is found in areas with nearby streams and lakes.

The western painted turtle lives in streams and lakes, similar to the other painted turtles, but also inhabits pasture ponds and roadside pools.

Among others, it occurs in rivers, streams, canals, ponds, lakes, swamps and estuaries, although it typically avoids fast-flowing waters, waters at high altitudes and the open sea.

They are known to inhabit disparate ecological niches, including mosses, rivers, lakes and ponds, wetlands, soils, peat bogs, and sand dunes.

Few species live in lakes, but they are among the most prolific.

The nymphs (technically, "naiads") are aquatic and live in the benthic zone of well-oxygenated lakes and streams.

Moisture requirements, among other ecological and behavioural factors, explain why some species cannot live aboveground, or retreat in the soil during dry seasons, but also why some epigeal springtails are always found in the vicinity of ponds and lakes, such as the hygrophilous Isotomurus palustris.

The nymphs are aquatic, with different species living in a variety of freshwater habitats including acidic bogs, ponds, lakes and rivers.

They occur in moist, temperate environments such as vegetation near lakes and streams.

The natural habitat of the African bullfrog is moist to dry savanna, subtropical to tropical dry shrubland, intermittent freshwater lakes, intermittent freshwater marshes, arable land, pastureland, canals, and flooded ditches.

P. subrufa is a semiaquatic animal, living in rivers, lakes, and marshes, and it also occupies rain pools and fertilized places.

In China it is found in rivers, lakes, ponds, canals and creeks with slow currents, and in Hawaii they can be found in marshes and drainage ditches.

He stated that it was found in lakes, rivers, and springs in the province "Karazan".

A. monica, the species commonly known as Mono Lake brine shrimp, can be found in Mono Lake, Mono County, California.

The species prefers freshwater rivers and streams, which are usually seasonally flooded, and may also take to freshwater lakes and springs.

They are usually found in or near ponds, lakes (including saline lakes), reservoirs, rivers, and streams within the above-mentioned habitats.

It can therefore live in brackish water in lagoons, estuaries, and lakes.

Most foraging occurs in wet grasslands, cultivated fields, shallow rivers, or on the shores of lakes.

Breeding takes place in a range of aquatic habitats: deep volcanic lakes, shallow vernal pools, artificial cattle ponds, and intermittent, fish-free stream pools.

The common roach is very adaptable and can be found in any freshwater ecosystem, ranging from small ponds to the largest rivers and lakes.

The spotted-necked otter inhabits lakes and larger rivers throughout much of Africa south of 10°N.

Although typically found in marine habitat-sometimes solitary, sometimes in pairs, sometimes in vast flocks of hundreds or thousands-it is also attracted to inland waters, including lakes, deep and open wetlands, and rivers.

In Germany, 75% of eyries were within 3 km (1.9 mi) of a lake, although one was 11 km (6.8 mi) away from any lake though was somewhat closer to the Baltic Sea. 80% of German nests were described as being in forests but eagles exhibited preferences for wooded islands or promontories and most nests were usually towards edge of open space: a clearing, marshy ground or even agricul

The coot breeds across much of the Old World on freshwater lakes and ponds, and like its relative the common moorhen, has adapted well to living in urban environments, often being found in parks and gardens with access to water.

When deep water is already present in lakes, rivers, or larger streams, the beaver may dwell in a bank burrow and bank lodge with an underwater entrance.

In contrast to other loons, its main fishing grounds are not the breeding lake, but larger lakes or the sea.

Their breeding habitat is close to marshes and lakes with plenty of vegetation to conceal the nest.

In northern climes, it breeds in treeless moors, on bogs, or on dwarf heather habitats, usually where small lakes or pools are also found.

Their breeding habitat is large lakes and ocean coasts in North America (including the Great Lakes), and locally in Europe (mainly around the Baltic Sea and Black Sea), Asia, Africa, and Australasia (Australia and New Zealand).

Its breeding habitat is shallow lakes with brackish water and exposed bare mud.

This bird breeds in small colonies in heavily vegetated areas of freshwater lakes across Europe, much of Asia down to New Guinea, and most of Africa.

Convict cichlids are native to the lakes and streams of Central America.

In their non-breeding habitat they feed on intertidal mudflats and along the muddy margins of freshwater lakes.

The breeding habitats are most commonly alkali lake shores, wetlands, salt marshes, and coastland, which is fitting with the results of a study that investigated what makes an environment suitable for a breeding habitat for the Kentish plover.

The gull-billed tern breeds in colonies on lakes, marshes and coasts (including bays and earthen levees).

The masked crimson tanager inhabits várzea forest, brushy areas, secondary forest, and other vegetative communities along oxbow lakes and rivers.

The black swan's preferred habitat extends across fresh, brackish and salt water lakes, swamps and rivers with underwater and emergent vegetation for food and nesting materials.

They prefer to winter on fresh water wetlands such as swamps and lakes and are usually seen singly or in small groups.

It prefers slower-moving areas of rivers and lakes.

It is found along rivers, lakes and lagoons in Sub-Saharan Africa.
