Abstract
Dynamics of metal content in higher aquatic plants (macrophytes) in a small water reservoir Bugach during the years 1998-2006 was studied. A comparative estimation of metal content in six macrophyte species (Тypha latifolia L., Тypha angustifolia L., Polygonium amphibium L., Potamogeton perfoliatus L., Potamogeton pectinatus L., Phragmites australis(Cav.) Trin. ex Steud.) showed that metal concentrations in them generally do not exceed those known from literature. Cluster anаlysis showed that the macrophyte species under study form two ecological groups with respect to metal content: submerged plants (hydrophytes) and emergent aquatic plants (heliophytes).
