Abstract
The significance of Lake Ohrid as an unique aquatic ecosystem is well known not only to the people of its border countries of Albania and the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM), but also to scientists throughout the world. Its richness in biodiversity and especially in relic and endemic species, as a result of its great age, geographic isolation, and the stability of its ecological conditions, gives it global significance.
