Abstract

According to the data of scanning electron microscopy, in the plankton of the shallow-water eutrophic waterbody of the Ptichiya Gavan natural park (Omsk), located in the South of Western Siberia, 105 morphotypes of stomatocysts of Chrysophyceae have been identified and combined into 20 groups. The variety of morphotypes is significantly higher than the abundance of Chrysophyceae species (24 species) in this waterbody. The highest variety of morphotypes (64) is characteristic for ornamented stomatocysts. The maximum abundance of stomatocysts is observed in autumn, and the minimum is in winter. Unornamented stomatocysts with a spherical form without a collar are predominant. This data can be used for the paleolimnological reconstructions.
