Статья. Опубликована в Hydrobioogical Journal. — 2001. — Vol. 37, №06 – рр. 45-64
The species composition, distribution, quantitative development, and functional activity of epiphytic Ciliata occurring in the Dnieper reservoirs were studied. The samples of epiphytic Ciliata were taken from 12 species of higher aquatic plants. Based on literature and original data, it was inferred that epiphytic Ciliata are of minor importance in transformation of organic matter.
