Macrophytobenthos stock in the protected water areas of Sevastopol city

Mironova N.V. , Pankeeva T.V.

For the first time, the stocks of bottom vegetation at the natural monuments of Sevastopol city were assessed on the basis of hydrobiological studies (2020–2021). The largest total macrophyte stock and their dominant species (Ericaria crinita and Gongolaria barbata) are typical for the water area of the natural monument “Nearshore Aquatic Complex (NAC) at Cape Lucullus”, the lowest, for “NAC at Cape Sarych”. Maximum biomass stock of Phyllophora crispa algae was recorded in the waters of the natural monument “NAC at Tauric Chersonese”. The results obtained may be recommended for optimizing the environmental regime of the natural monuments.
