Diversity and Ecology of the Phytoplankton of Filamentous Blue-Green Algae ([i]Cyanoprokaryota[/i], [i]Nostocales[/i]) in Bulgarian Standing Waters
Journal Title: Ecologia Balkanica - Year 2013, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
The current study presents data about the diversity and ecology of filamentous blue-green algae, found in the phytoplankton of 42 standing water basins in Bulgaria. We identified 9 species from [i]Cyanoprokaryot[/i]a, which belong to 5 genera from order Nostocales. Ecological characterization of the identified species has been performed. Data about the physicochemical parameters of the water basins are also provided.
