Abstract
The results of the studies (2010-2016) of the species composition of microscopic algae of benthos of the steppe river Kuchurgan are presented. The aim of this work was to study the taxonomic composition of microscopic algae in the benthos of the river Kuchurgan. 97 species of algae which belonged to 49 genera, 31 families, 18 orders, 8 classes and 6 divisions were identified. The greatest taxonomical variety was presented by representatives of diatoms (77 species), blue-green (10) and green (5) algae. Genera of Nitzschia (11 species), Navicula (6), Gomphonema (5), Cymbella (4) and Tryblionella (4) constituted the basis of the species variety. For the first time 65 new species of algae for the river Kuchurgan and 4 rare species of algae for water bodies of Ukraine were found. Of them Navicula alinae and Luticola goeppertiana are presented as new for reservoirs of North-Western Black Sea Estuaries and new for Ukraine. Algal flora of the river Kuchurgan was freshwater, alkaliphilic, mesosaprobic and cosmopolitan.
