This high di- versity is attributed to three major factors: (1) Meach Lake receives a continuous sup- ply of algal cells from Lac Mousseau and Lac Philippe because it is at the base of the watershed. (2) Meach Lake, hke Lac Philippe, ap- pears to be in transition between oligotrophy and eutrophy and both types of indicator species are present. For example, Tabellaria jenestrata, Navicula vulpina (Figure 3), and Fragilaria crotonensis (Figure 2) are all in- dicators of mesotrophic to eutrophic conditions (Patrick and Reimer 1966) while Pinnularia diver gens and Diatoma hiemale (Figure 2), two more or less oligotrophic species (Patrick and Reimer 1966), are also found in Meach.
