Abstract
This paper describes the influence of different ecological factors on the distribution of Oligochaeta in parts of the Dnieper-Bug Estuary. The important environmental factors in the Dnieper-Bug Estuary were salinity, discharge, water quality, trophic condition and sediment characteristics. In the Lower DnieperBug a correlation was found between abundance and number of oligochaete species and the concentration of ammonium nitrogen and mineral phosphorus in the water.
