Abstract

The taxonomic diversity of amoeboid protists was examined in three types of tundra soils in the Kolyma Lowland, namely, a podzolized podbur, a cryozem, and a gleyzem. In total, 27 naked amoeba genera were identified in the analyzed samples. It was shown that the individual soil types house different communities of naked amoebas. The distribution of naked amoebas in the cryozem had two peaks: one in the upper organic horizon and the other at the boundary with the permafrost.
