Abstract
In the course of systematic study of phytobenthos in the Lake Baikal within period from 1963 to 1988, L. A. Izboldina collected material on the structure and distribution of meio- and macrophytobenthos in the littoral zone along the entire perimeter of the lake. In the article we describe second part of the data, i.e. 56 benthic profiles laid along the eastern coast of the lake Baikal. Some questions concerning distribution of the benthic vegetation, as well as biomass determination caused by massive growth of green algae of the genus Spirogyra in Lake Baikal have been commented.
