Abstract
The database comprises the distribution of freshwater fish species in 28 Italian lakes. Data were obtained between 2007 and 2014 from standardised (CEN based) samplings with benthic and mesopelagic multi-mesh gillnets. The database offers a detailed description of the biodiversity of fish communities in the Italian regions of Piedmont, Lombardy, Trentino-Alto Adige and Sardinia including both natural lakes and reservoirs.
