Some Physico-Chemical Properties of East Euphrates Drainage with effected of Epipelic Algae / AL-Dawaniya/Iraq
Abstract
Some physico-chemical properties of East Euphrates Drainage with effectes of Epipelic Algae were studied during the period from Sept-ember 2010 to August 2011.
Three Sites were selected , the water quality of the Drainage was alkaline, very hard, oligohaline and well oxygenated,Few species were identified during most studied period such as ( Amphiprora alata, A.costata,Nitzschiagracilis,N.longissima,N.acicularis,Mastogloiasmithii , ,M.elliptic,Oscillatorialimnetica,Euglenapolymorpha)Among the 125 species algal taxa were identified, the dominance was to Bacillariophyceae (83 taxa) represented 66.4% followed by Cyanophyceae 19.2 % then Euglenophyceae 9.6%.
