AbstractThe species composition and abundance of zoobenthos are studied to reveal the structure of bottom invertebrate communities under the effect of biotopical, hydrological, and climatic factors. One hundred and six quantitative samples were collected from 15 pools of rapid rivers (61.6°–67.1° N) from 2003 to 2017 in eastern Fennoscandia. The basic part of the fauna is formed by 151 species, including

Trophic Structure of Benthic Macroinvertebrate Communities from Lakes with Various Water-Salinity Levels Inland Water Biol. (IF 0.481) Pub Date : 2020-02-27 D. M. Bezmaternykh; O. N. Vdovina
AbstractThe trophic structure of benthic macroinvertebrate communities in lakes varying in salinity levels (from oligohaline to hyperhaline) in the southern Ob–Irtysh interfluve has been investigated. Four trophic groups of macroinvertebrates have been identified in 48 lakes: (1) predators, (2) grinders, (3) scrapers, and (4) collectors–detritophages and facultative filter feeders. It is found that

The Role of Myoglobin and Lipids in Correcting Oxygen Diffusion in Skeletal Muscles of Bony Fish (A Review) Inland Water Biol. (IF 0.481) Pub Date : 2020-02-27 A. A. Soldatov; V. V. Sevrikov
AbstractInformation on the pattern of oxygen diffusion in skeletal muscles of bony fish is discussed. This diffusion is determined by a number of variables. Endothelium of microcirculatory vessels should not be considered the main barrier for oxygen diffusion, as it has large pores and perforations. The main diffusion barrier is cytoplasmic and intracellular membranes of muscle fibers. A substantial

Distribution and Interannual Changes of the Zooplankton of the Durgun Water Basin and Adjoining Water Objects (the Western Mongolia) Inland Water Biol. (IF 0.481) Pub Date : 2020-02-27 A. V. Krylov
The article describes quantitative and structural characteristics of zooplankton of polytypic sites of a water system including a lake, canal, and a water reservoir. It is shown that in the littoral zone of lakes and water reservoirs, the number of species and communities is higher, and biomass, lower. However, in the littoral zone of shallow lake zooplankton in number, took priority due to Rotifera

Spatiotemporal Changes in the Phytoplankton in Lake Baikal during Late Summer: I. Water Temperature and Phytoplankton Abundance Inland Water Biol. (IF 0.481) Pub Date : 2020-02-27 L. S. Krashchuk; S. V. Shimaraeva; E. A. Silow
AbstractResults of a study of the water temperature and phytoplankton abundance in different regions of Lake Baikal according to 15 expeditions from 1994 to 2013 during late summer are present. The spatial distribution and interannual dynamics of phytoplankton are analyzed. The total abundance of phytoplankton in late summer is shown to be high. Its average long-term value for all of the open area

Macrozoobenthic Communities of the Piedmont and Lowland Watercourses of the Lower Amur Region Inland Water Biol. (IF 0.481) Pub Date : 2020-02-27 M. V. Chertoprud; E. S. Chertoprud; L. V. Vorob’eva; D. M. Palatov; A. N. Tsyganov; I. S. Reshetov; N. P. Kovacheva
AbstractOn the basis of 120 original stations, macrozoobenthic communities of rivers from two adjacent areas of the Lower Amur Region (Khabarovsk krai) have been described. Rivers basins are characterized by contrasting landscape conditions: the Anyuy River basin in the piedmonts of the Sikhote-Alin mountain range and the Simmi River basin on the Amur Lowland. About 250 taxa of macroinvertebrates have

Bryozoa of the Caspian Sea Inland Water Biol. (IF 0.481) Pub Date : 2020-02-27 V. I. Gontar
AbstractFive bryozoan species of the class Gymnolaemata and a single Plumatella emarginata species of the class Phylactolaemata are found in the Caspian Sea. The class Gymnolaemata is represented by bryozoans of the orders Ctenostomatida (Amathia caspia, Paludicella articulata, and Victorella pavida) and Cheilostomatida (Conopeum grimmi and Lapidosella ostroumovi). Two species (Conopeum grimmi and

Accuracy of Assessing the Abundance of Fish Generations under Conditions of Incomplete Initial Information Inland Water Biol. (IF 0.481) Pub Date : 2020-02-27 V. G. Tereshchenko; V. A. Kuznetsov; F. M. Shakirova; L. I. Tereshchenko
AbstractThe accuracy of estimating the relative abundance of generations of fish species under conditions of incomplete initial information is analyzed. Using the example of bream from the Kuibyshev Reservoir, it is shown that, if the information on the age structure is lost for 1 to 8 years, the error in estimating the abundance of generations averages from 5 to 15%. This makes it possible to apply

A low variability (Cv = 27–31%) in concentrations of chlorophyll a and pheopigments over the bottom area and vertically in the sapropel cores is established. The values of pigment concentrations in bottom sediments of the lake belong to
