Macrozoobenthos in the Gilevsk Reservoir and adjacent reaches of the Alei River (Altai krai)

Resumo

The taxonomic composition and development level of macrozoobenthos in the Gilevsk Reservoir and the Alei River, as well as down- and upstream the reservoir, have been described. The dominant taxa of benthic invertebrates have been identified. The water quality of the studied objects has been estimated using the methods of bioindication based on the composition and structure of macrozoobenthos.
