Resumen:
A large number of lakes in northwestern Patagonia (Argentina) occur at or above the treeline. Because they are not easily accessible, only a small number of these mountain lakes have ever been sampled. Although a few lakes have been objects of specific studies, there has not been a systematic attempt to study mountain lakes, and the available information is scattered in diverse publications, dissertations, or remains unpublished. In this paper we attempt tocollect the available information and our own unpublished data in order to provide a first descriptionof these unique environments.
