Abstract

Phytobenthos algae (microphytobenthos and settlings) from coastal and estuarine waterbodies of Lake Baikal in deltas of Upper Angara, Kitchera, Kholodnaya, Tyja, Bargusin, Selenga Upper Angara bay, coastal waterbodies of southern Baikal and lakes near Bargusin riverchannel was studied. Structure, cenologic characters, biomass, productivity and the role of bentic algae in water ecosystems were also considered.
