  abstract = {{T}he benthic invertebrates fauna of most of the saline lakes of the {S}ud {L}ipez region ({B}olivia, {A}ltiplano) has been until now quite unstudied. {S}amples collected during an extensive survey of 12 lakes and two small inflow rivers allow a first list of the main macroinvertebrates living in the biotopes. {T}he heterogeneous nature of these saline lakes with their freshwater springs and phreatic inflows offers a variety of habitats to macroinvertebrates. {T}he benthic fauna in lakes with salinity > 10 g l-1 is not so low in density but includes few species and is dominated by {O}rthocladinae and {P}odonominae larvae. {I}n contrast, the freshwater springs and inflows are colonized by a diverse fauna with a mixture of both freshwater and saline taxa, but dominated by {E}lmidae and {A}mphipoda. {T}he lakes are quite isolated and, apart from some cosmopolitan organisms, their fauna can be quite distinctive.
