Abstract

The distribution of resting stages of the blue-green algae (akinetes) in the bottom sediments of the littoral of a small Siberian water reservoir is studied. The irregularity (mosaicism) of the distribution of akinetes in the bottom sediments of the littoral is demonstrated, and the possible mechanisms of its formation are anаlyzed.
