New Records of Lake Baikal Leech Fauna: Species Diversity and Spatial Distribution in Chivyrkuy Gulf

The study of several Lake Baikal leech collections offered us the possibility to determine species diversity in the Chivyrkuy Gulf, the biggest one in the lake. As a result, the first information on the Chivyrkuy Hirudinea fauna (Annelida, Clitellata) has been revealed. There are two orders and four families of leeches in the Chivyrkuy Gulf: order Rhynchobdellida (families Glossiphoniidae and P...

Siliceous microfossil distribution in the surficial sediments of Lake Baikal

Examination of surficial sediments at 16 stations shows minor, but consistent differences in the numbers and kinds of siliceous microfossils deposited in different regions of Lake Baikal. There is a general north-south decreasing trend in total microfossil abundance on a weight basis. Endemic plankton diatom species are the most abundant component of assemblages at all stations. Chrysophyte cys...

Distribution, Abundance and biodiversity of phytoplankton in Elimalat Lake, Mazandaran Province

Phytoplankton plays an important role in the material cycle and energy flow of the ecosystem, Therefore in this study, the distribution, frequency, and biodiversity of phytoplankton in Elimalat Lake were investigated. Sampling was performed in Elimalat Lake sessonally, located in Nur City, Mazandaran province, in 2019. In this study, 70 species of phytoplankton were classified into 5 phylum ...
