| Abstract |
The data on the species composition of benthic invertebrates of the lower reaches of the Danube River found during a long period of time (1946-2018) have been generalized in the paper. The total list of the found species has been compiled. The species composition of benthic invertebrates of the lower reaches of the Danube River was compared to that registered in its upper reaches, and also to their species composition observed in the estuary of the Volga River. The species composition of benthic invertebrates of the lower reaches of the Danube River proved to be rather similar to that registered in the estuary of the Volga River and differed from their species composition observed in the upper reaches of the Danube River. It has been shown that the accuracy of comparison depends to a large extent on the level of knowledge. |
