“…Qualitatively, Cosmarium was the most dominant and diverse genus with 15 species (57.69%), followed by the subdominant Staurastrum (5 species; 19.23%); whereas the other genera were only represented by 1 species (3.84%). The dominance of the genus Cosmarium in these mountain nature park habitats is highly congruent with previous studies on similar ecosystems in the Northern Hemisphere (Medvedeva, 2001;Sterlyagova, 2008;Šovran et al, 2013;Briškaite et al, 2016). Cosmarium is the genus that typifies desmids (Lee, 2015).…”

The algal flora of 17 lakes and 1 pond in the Artabel Lakes Nature Park were investigated during two summer seasons (2013 and 2016). In total, 26 desmid taxa were found and identified as new records for the desmid flora of Turkey based on their morphotaxonomic characteristics and ecological preferences. The taxa identified belong to the genera Actinotaenium (1), Closterium (1), Cosmarium (15), Micrasterias (1), Spondylosium (1), Staurastrum (5), Teilingia (1), and Tetmemorus (1). Morphotaxonomy, ecology, and distribution of each species were discussed in detail.

“…These families comprised 89.04% of all taxa. This result supports the conclusions of other authors (Stamenkovıć et al 2008;Sterlyagova 2008;Šovran et al 2013) that these families are most diverse in northern mountainous areas. Other families represented 10.95% of all taxa.…”

The composition of charophyte taxa and their habitat preferences in water bodies of the Artabel Lakes Nature Park were investigated on 15 August 2013 and 13 August 2016. A total of 73 taxa belonging to Conjugatophyceae (Zygnematophyceae) and Klebsormidiophyceae were recorded. The genera Cosmarium (37), Staurastrum (10) and Closterium (7) were most abundant. The partly unexpected presence of certain desmid taxa, i.e., taxa characteristic of eutrophic water, was recorded. Filamentous charophytes were represented by three taxa. The Willis curve for the distribution of species to genera had a trend line of R 2 = 0.9123. Bioindication, statistical methods and comparative floristic results show that water in all of the studied lakes was fresh, of low-conductivity, circum-neutral and with little organic pollution. Four groups of lakes were identified as a result of statistical comparison of their environmental and biological variables. Bioindication results can be used as references for future monitoring of the lakes in protection of the species found in the Artabel Lakes Nature Park and can also be included in the National Water Quality Standard System of Turkey.

“…Bacillariophyta and Cyanobacteria occurred in all the studied mires, the fact is well known from the literature (ština et al, 1981;genkal & kulikovskij, 2006;stenina, 2008a, b;Koreivienė et al, 2015). Species from the Charophyta division that are a typical component of mire systems were found almost in all the investigated sites (gecen, 1985;KostKevičienė et al, 2003;luknickaja, 2010;Šovran et al, 2013). Diatoms were prevalent in all of the mires and made up to 52.5-85% from all the species diversity found in the particular mires.…”

“…The desmids and cyanoprokaryotes have been (gecen, 1985;kulikovskiy, 2008;stenina, 2008a, b;Krivograd Klemenčič et al, 2010;Šovran et al, 2013). It is believed that the diversity ratio of Desmidiaceae species may be used as the index of geographical location of studied flora: the number of Cosmarium species over Closterium species grows towards the Arctic regions, (gecen, 1985).…”

“…In the second half of the 20th century, there was little interest to investigate algae of these ecosystems (Ština et al, 1981). During the last decades, however, the number of publications devoted to the separate algal groups of mires (genkal & kulikovskij, 2006;JaKimavičiūtė et al, 2006;luknickaja, 2010;Šovran et al, 2013) and their floras in different regions, including hydrophilic and soil habitats (muñoz et al, 2003;zakieva, 2007;stenina, 2008a, b;maKarevič & lešKo, 2009;KoniščuK, 2013), have increased. Researchers are still interested to study algal groups that are specific to different types of mires under distinct range of environmental conditions (Borics et al, 2003;Krivograd Klemenčič et al, 2010;Pivovarova & Blagodatnova, 2016).…”

Sterlyagova I., Shabalina J., 2017: Algae in sphagnum epiphyton from the mires of the Subpolar Urals [Kiminų epifitono dumbliai subpoliarinio Uralo pelkėse]. -Bot. Lith., 23(1): 3-16.Species diversity of algal communities of sphagnum epiphyton was studied in six mountain and plain mires of the Subpolar Urals (Russia). A total of 154 species and intraspecific taxa from six divisions were identified. The highest species richness was recorded for Bacillariophyta (96 taxa) and Charophyta (33) divisions. Species Kobayasiella parasubtilissima, Tabellaria flocculosa and Eunotia lunaris had high abundance. Dominant communities were often formed by Eunotia lunaris, E. mucophila, Kobayasiella parasubtilissima and Pinnularia subcapitata. CCA analysis showed that conductivity and altitude above the sea level are the main factors affecting the development of algae in the studied mires.
