Abstract EN

Algal flora along Tigris and Euphrates rivers from Baghdad southward were studied as well as in Shatt Al-Arab estuary.

Out of 58 algal taxon identified throughout this study, Melosira spp.

and Cyclotella spp.

were found to be dominant.

It was found that 70% of the twin rivers flora do not.

tolerate the estuary environment, whereas 60% of the algal flora of Shatt Al-Arab estuary comes from different sources other than that of Tigris and Euphrates.

Some physico-chemical parameters were investigated in these three water bodies.

This investigation may be regard as a baseline for future limnological studies in other inland waters of Iraq.
