Abstract
The results of a study (1991–2007) of microalgae communities from a rocky substrate (phytoepilithon) in the littoral zone of Lake Teletskoye found at a depth of up to 1.5 m are presented. The features of the spatial and temporal organization of microalgae communities coexisting in rocky-substrate–water, land–water, and tributary–lake ecotones are presented. It is shown that microalgae of ecotones are adapted to the intensity and instability of the abiotic factors.
