Abstract
Algological studies conducted in June–August 2021 on the lagoon Blagodatnoye Lake (Iturup Island) and showed a high diversity of species composition of cyanobacteria and algae (274 species and intraspecifi c taxa from eight divisions: Cyanobacteria, Miozoa, Bacillariophyta, Chlorophyta, Charophyta, Criptista, Ochrophyta, Euglenozoa). Diatoms make up a signifi cant share in the formation of algofl ora (73,2 % of the total number of species). Complexes of dominant species in lake plankton are represented by cyanobacteria and diatoms: Aulacoseira granulata and it’s variation A. granulata var. angustissima Aphanizomenon fl os-aquae (August). The maximum values of quantitative indicators of the main dominants reached: N = 1323,3 thousand cells/l, B = 685,5 mg/l for Asterionella formosa, and N = 3646 thousand cells/l, B = 4579,4 mg/l for Aulacoseira granulata. The ecological and geographical characteristics of the algal fl ora of Blagodatnoe Lake were carried out: benthic species (48,2 % of the total number of taxa), indiff erent to salinity change (68,6 %), alkaliphilic (42,3 %), cosmopolitan (70,1 %) species were predominance, and oligosaprobionts and betamesosaprobionts were 35,4 and 33,9 %, respectively.
