Parameters characterizing geographic locations with GPS coordinates, altitude, mean and maximum depths and area of the 24 freshwater habitats studied by using CARD-FISH probes targeting all cryptophytes (CryptoB, [27]) and the CRY1 lineage (Cry1-652, [18]), presented on the basis of their increasing Chl-a concentrations and total phosphorus in epilimnetic water layers from ultra-oligotrophic to hypertrophic ones.

Classification of hypertrophic shallow lakes follows the criteria suggested in Scheffer [36].

Lake classification: AL alpine lake, DPL deep prealpine lake, CL caldera lake, DTL deep tectonic lake, SHL shallow hypertrophic lake, MPL mine pit lake, DR dam reservoir.

^aHabitats at which also hypolimnetic samples were analyzed (for details see Supplementary Table S1).

^bHabitats at which bacterivory rates of total HNF and the probe-defined cryptophyte groups were studied using FLB tracers.

^cTotal phosphorus (the last column) was detected as total dissolved phosphorus in the 0.2-µm filtered fraction or in unfiltered water samples (no index) at the sampling date.

^dIn case neither was available, the annual range of total phosphorus values is listed for the epilimnion of the Japanese lakes recorded during 2015 [37].
