MICROSCOPIC ALGAE OF BENTHOS OF THE KHADZHIBEY ESTUARY (ODESA, UKRAINE)

Abstract

The results of studies (2001-2015) of the species composition of microscopic algae of benthos of the Khadzhibey estuary are presented. The aim of this work was to study the taxonomic composition of microscopic algae of benthos of the Khadzhibey estuary. 44 samples of periphyton macrophytes, silt and sandy soils were collected and processed. 100 species of algae, which belong to 69 genera, 37 families, 20 orders, 9 classes and 6 divisions, were identified. For the first time 35 new species were found for the waters of the studied reservoir, 2 species (Mallomonas apochromatica Conrad, Distigma striato-granulata Skuja) are given as new for the territory of Ukraine. In the microphytobenthos in the Khadzhibey estuary benthic forms (65 species) dominated over planktonic ones (35). With respect to water salinity freshwater forms (67 species) dominated. Brackish-water species (26) were much less numerous. Marine forms constituted 7 taxa. In accordance with the biogeographic distribution of algae, cosmopolitans (63 species) were the dominant group. The boreal group, which accounted 37 species, was considerably less numerous.
