The species registered belong to 11 orders, being Prostomatida the most specious (7 species), followed by Gymnostomatida, Oligotrichida, Peritrichida (with 5 species each), and Scuticociliatida (4 species).
The predominance of Prostomatida, Gymnostomatida and Oligotrichida orders in the Inga Lake corroborates the composition pattern observed in other studies (ARAUJO; COSTA, 2007; MIECZAN, 2007; PAULETO et al., 2009), which is related to their pelagic habit.

On the other side, according to Beaver and Crisman (1989) and Modenutti and Perez (2001) the Oligotrichida (Spirotrichea) dominate numerically in oligotrophic lakes, while Scuticociliatia and Haptoria predominate in environments with higher trophic level (Beaver and Crisman, 1989).
