Abstract EN
The basic idea of the present study was to assess the population of algal flora in two different aquatic ecosystems inhabited by a salamander Neurergus crocatus.
According to the results of physico-chemical parameters, there were significant differences between the two ecosystems in all the measured parameters, and the two locations characterized by low nutrient contents.
At site one, the variation in all physico-chemical parameters was significant and there was no stability of the water quality parameters during the period of study, while site two was characterized by a sort of stability in all physicochemical parameters of water quality.
Regarding the algal flora at two sites, there was a clear variation in this aspect.
At site one, three species of macrobenthic and seven species of microbenthic algae were identified during the period of study.
Whereas in site two, only one species of red algae and one species of cyanobacteria was noticed in March.
Low number of algal species in this site can be attributed to the lytic activity of Pseudomonas fluorescens.
