Ракушковые раки (Crustacea: ostracoda) озер Березинского биосферного заповедника

Abstract

The fauna of ostracods from 7 lakes of the Berezina Biosphere Reserve was studied. The 9 species were found belonging to 4 families: Candonidae - 4 species and juveniles of genus Pseudocandona-, Notodromadidae - 1, Cyprididae - 2 and Lymnocytheridae - 2 species. Species diversity indices of ostracods inhabited shallow, swamped, «macrophyte type» — lakes in the reserve, was the least of ones for other water bodies types in Belarus. According to species ecological patterns we used indicator species for the comparing of hydrochemical conditions in the lakes. We gave the vector of processes for some lakes as well.
