Abstract

The article presents an overview of published materials for the period 1963-2020, containing information on the number of larvae and juveniles of fish in different types of water bodies of the Ob River basin (Western Siberia). Data on the fish productivity of rivers and lakes of the Ob basin for steppe, forest-steppe, taiga and tundra natural zones are presented. The Ob River is the main waterway of Western Siberia. The area of the Ob River basin is 2929,000 km2, the length of the river is 3680 km. The existing pronounced differences in the nature of the relief, climate, soils, waters, vegetation of the natural zones of the Ob basin determine the features of the hydrological regime and the living conditions of hydrobionts. Accordingly, the floodplain of the Ob river with its numerous backwaters, kuryami, lakes, sorami is the main places of spawning and feeding of fish.
 In the course of generalization of the published materials, information was obtained on the number and features of the distribution of juvenile fish in different types of water bodies (channel pits, floodplain lakes, old trees, sores) of the Ob River basin. The results of studies on determining the fish productivity of rivers and lakes of the Ob basin of steppe, forest-steppe, taiga and tundra natural zones are analyzed.
