Results of the ecological analysis have shown that planktonic-benthic and planktonic organisms were represented by the largest number of species. Algal species - indicators of slowly flowing and moderately warm waters, and also indifferent organisms in relation to pH and water salinity prevailed in phytoplankton of the studied ponds. Among diatoms - indicators of the type of nutrition, nitrogen-autotrophic taxa tolerating elevated concentrations of organically bound nitrogen were represented by the largest number of species. Eurysaprobes and β-mesosaprobionts predominated among the indicators of organic contamination, whereas eutraphentic organisms-among the indicators of the trophic state. It has been found that the Orekhovatka ponds were contaminated by organic matter and nutrients most. %8 2018-09-25
