'''Lake Dapao''' is a deep water [[lake]] located in the province of [[Lanao del Sur]], southwest of [[Lake Lanao]], in the island of [[Mindanao]] in the [[Philippines]].<ref name="arcbc">{{cite web|url=http://www.arcbc.org.ph/wetlands/philippines/phl_lakdapao.html|title=Lake Dapao on ARCBC.ORG|publisher=ARCBC.ORG|accessdate=October 15, 2008|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20081201105710/http://www.arcbc.org.ph/wetlands/philippines/phl_lakdapao.html|archivedate=December 1, 2008}}</ref> It is one of the deepest lakes<ref name="bimpeaga">{{cite web|url=http://www.eaga.org.bn/eaga/forestry/Philippines/Lake%20Dapao/lake%20Dapao.htm|title=Lake Dapao National Park|publisher=[[BIMP-EAGA]]|accessdate=October 15, 2008|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20070710105650/http://www.eaga.org.bn/eaga/forestry/Philippines/Lake%20Dapao/lake%20Dapao.htm|archivedate=July 10, 2007}}</ref> in the country, reaching a maximum depth of {{convert|120|m|ft}}. It has an estimated surface area of {{convert|1011|ha|km2}}. The lake receives water from local [[Surface runoff|run-off]] and several small [[river]]s.<br />
<br />
In 1965, the lake and its vicinity was declared as a protected [[national park]] under ''Republic Act 4190''<ref name="ra4190">{{cite web|url=http://www.chanrobles.com/republicactno4190.htm#REPUBLIC%20ACT%20NO.%204190|title=Republic Act 9140: An Act Declaring Certain Places in the Province of Lanao del Sur As National Parks|date=May 4, 1965|publisher=Republic of the Philippines|accessdate=October 14, 2008}}</ref><ref name="list">{{cite web|url=http://www.geocities.com/TheTropics/1030/npark.htm|title=List of National Parks and Protected Areas in the Philippines|accessdate=October 15, 2008|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20080106120048/http://www.geocities.com/TheTropics/1030/npark.htm|archivedate=January 6, 2008}}</ref> that covers an area of about {{convert|1500|km2|mi2}}.<br />

Plants growing in the lake includes hydrilla (''[[Hydrilla|Hydrilla spp]]'') and the filamentous [[alga]] (''[[Clodophora|Clodophora spp]]''). The lake is also rich in fish that includes dalág (''[[Ophicephalus striatus]]''), Mozambique tilapia (''[[Oreochromis mossambicus]]''), common carp (''[[Cyprinus carpio]]''), goby (''[[Glossogobius giurus]]'') and catfish (''[[Clarias|Clarias spp]]'').<ref name="arcbc"/><br />

It was reported that the endangered ''[[Barbodes tumba]]'' and other [[Endemism|endemic]] [[Cyprinidae|cyprinids]] were once widely distributed in the lake; however, none were found during fieldwork in 1982<ref>{{Cite journal |date=1982 |title=Editorial Notes and News |url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/1444645 |journal=Copeia |volume=1982 |issue=2 |pages=493–496 |issn=0045-8511}}</ref> and the former is believed to be locally extinct.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Abdulmalik-Labe |first=Onaya P. |last2=Quilang |first2=Jonas P. |date=2019-05-26 |title=Genetic diversity among the endemic barb Barbodes tumba (Teleostei: Cyprinidae) populations from Mindanao, Philippines |url=https://threatenedtaxa.org/index.php/JoTT/article/view/4851 |journal=Journal of Threatened Taxa |language=en |volume=11 |issue=7 |pages=13822–13832 |doi=10.11609/jott.4851.11.7.13822-13832 |issn=0974-7907|doi-access=free }}</ref><br />
