AB  - The zooplankton community was analysed
in two intermittent salt lakes in Serbia – Lake
Velika and Lake Mala Rusanda. Samples were collected
twice a month during the wet phase between
March and May. A total of 15 zooplankton taxa were
identified. Crustaceans were more diverse in Lake
Mala Rusanda. The communities of both lakes were
composed mainly of cosmopolitan, generalist, euryhaline
species. Strictly haline species such as Brachionus
asplanchnoidis and Arctodiaptomus spinosus
were the dominant components of the zooplankton
communities in both lakes. Arctodiaptomus spinosus
was most abundant in March and April, accounting
for up to 50% of all zooplankton specimens found in a
sample. The proportion of juvenile stages of A. spinosus
was highest in the March and early April samples.
The ratio of males to females varied and was likely related to swarming behaviour as part of the species’
reproductive strategy.

AB  - Large lowland rivers represent an important type of ecosystem that has been under a constant anthropogenic influence (industry, thermal
power plants, untreated communal water, and agriculture) for centuries, which has led to most of them no longer meeting natural reference
conditions. These pressures affect diatom communities which represent a reliable bioindicator of the overall degradation of water bodies.
The current study provides detailed information about benthic diatoms from the large international lowland rivers Sava and Tisa, analyzed
using digital microscopy. Using the digital method and the BIIGLE 2.0 image annotation system, a total of 205 and 206 diatom taxa in the
Sava and Tisa rivers were identified, belonging to 65 and 63 genera, respectively. Some of the dominant genera in the Sava River were
Achnanthidium, Cocconeis, Gyrosigma, and Navicula, while in the Tisa River, mostly centric diatoms (Discostella, Cyclotella, Stephanodiscus)
were dominant. Most of the recorded species are alkaliphilic and characteristic of running waters with high trophic conditions.
The presence of halophilic taxa was also noted (e.g. Bacillaria paxilifera, Tryblionella species, Nitzschia clausii, Navicula salinarum).
These taxa are sensitive indicators of even short-term changes in lowland lotic ecosystems characterized by elevated conductivity. The
diatom indices showed very consistent ecological status, mainly moderate in terms of the general pollution index IPS, and poor to bad
ecological status according to trophic diatom indices (Rott TI and TDI).

AB  - Soda pans are restricted to the Carpathian Basin and differ from other similar saline waters mainly due to the dominant presence of Na+, HCO3–, and CO32– ions. These shallow and temporary aquatic habitats are inhabited by a number of species that can thrive in extreme environments. In Serbia, saline habitats are rare, endangered, and most common in the territory of Vojvodina. One of the most investigated group of organisms in soda pans is diatoms. Due to ecophysiological plasticity, they can survive and tolerate extreme environmental conditions which gives them a competitive advantage over other algae. Quite the opposite, prokaryotes in saline habitats are not sufficiently studied and data are scarce. Thus, samples from 6 soda pans were collected in March 2021 aiming to determine diatom (microscopic and molecular analysis, 18S rRNA gene) and bacterial community (16S rRNA gene).
Most of the recorded diatom taxa are neutrophilic to alkalibiontic, mostly halophilic, and eutrophic species. The species richness diversity index was the highest in Velika Slatina and Slatina, while it was lowest in Mala Rusanda. The genus Nitzschia was one of the most represented and numerous according to morphological analyses (24 taxa, 4 dominant), while molecular analyses indicate 11 different species with low abundances and mainly with unassigned sequences. The biggest discrepancy in these two approaches was observed in Mala Rusanda and Okanj bara. Metabarcoding analysis indicated Halamphora veneta as the dominant taxa, while morphological analyses have shown a predominance of Nitzschia supralitorea and Surirella brebissonii in Mala Rusanda, and N. austriaca in Okanj bara.
Estimated richness and alpha diversity indices showed the highest bacterial diversity in Velika Rusanda and Okanj bara, while the lowest richness was in Mala Rusanda. Representatives of the phylum Proteobacteria were detected predominantly in Pečena Slatina, Bacteroidota in Velika Slatina, Actinobacteria in Okanj bara, while representatives of Firmicutes were most abundant in Slatina, Velika Rusanda, and Mala Rusanda. At the genus level, 515 different genera were detected, and some of the most dominant were: Luteolibacter, unidentified genera from the family Bacillaceae, Actibacter, etc.
Further investigations will be required to overcome the problem of the reference barcoding library incompleteness for halophilic and alkaliphilic species in these habitats and try to reveal the unknown relationship between diatoms and bacteria.

AB  - The Ruhr area in western Germany is characterised by high industrialisation and population density. Located in an alluvial plain, some natural rivers have historically been coerced to carry wastewater through concrete channels, as technology has only recently allowed the use of separate sewage systems. Since the 1990s, the morphological and compositional restoration of these channelized rivers has begun and impacted their ecosystems. Our knowledge of how the restoration affects the ecosystems in general and diatoms, in particular, is still limited. Using molecular and digital light microscopy on samples collected in spring 2021 and 2022 from river sites along the Boye catchment, following a time-since-restoration-gradient, we aimed to analyse the effect of restoration on diatom diversity and community composition. Diatom species richness was not significantly higher in samples from natural urban rivers that never contained sewage or were constrained by concrete channelling than in renatured localities. However, using an 18S-V9 marker to characterise the protist biofilm composition, some differences were highlighted. Diatom communities were similar, with a predominance of Achnanthidium minutissimum (Kützing) Czarnecki, independent of local differences in hydrology and water composition. The natural sites tended to have a greater predominance of Planothidium frequentissimum (Lange-Bertalot in Krammer and Lange-Bertalot) Lange-Bertalot and other taxa. As all sites, from natural to recently restored, are urban rivers and as such are affected by anthropogenic pressures, both microscopy and molecular methods showed some degree of degradation in their ecosystems. The overall water quality of the streams ranged from moderate to very good, indicating the positive impacts of the restoration works conducted in these former sewage channels. In this first study reporting on the recovery of the diatom community in the Boye catchment after restoration following a severe anthropogenic impact, we see that the diatom community is recovering relatively quickly, but only to a stage that indicates that some chemical pollution is likely still present.

AB  - Here, we introduce a collection of more than 83,000 light microscopy images of individual diatom valves or frustules, covering a broad range of taxa and morphology by more than 320 samples from 15 different river and lake ecotypes. The diatoms were imaged at high resolution (< 0.1 µm/pixel) by transmitted light bright-field microscopy, with focus stacking to artificially increase focal depth up to 25 µm, allowing simultaneous observation of valve ornamentation and shape. Taken from a real-world setting, the images partly also include debris, mineral particles or other diatoms. Four experts identified over 500 diatom species; more than 100 species are represented by at least 100 specimens and about 150 by at least 50 specimens each. This data set is about one order of magnitude larger than previously published diatom data sets, and its high interspecies similarity makes it a valuable resource e.g. for benchmarking fine-grained out-of-distribution (OOD) detection, on which we present a new approach.

AB  - Soda pans located in the northern part of Serbia are alkaline and very shallow water habitats influenced by seasonal drying. Due to the rareness, vulnerability, and specific biota, these saline habitats have high conservation priority according to the EU Habitats Directive (92/43/EC).
Since 2017, ten soda pans have been intensively studied with the aim to determine the diatom biodiversity and to evaluate ecological conditions. Diatom samples were collected from mud and reed, and samples for molecular analyses were additionally collected in 2021.
The diatom community is mostly composed of species that prefer alkaline conditions and high conductivity. Some of the most dominant genera are Nitzschia and Navicula. Among the recorded diatoms, Mayamaea permitis and one unknown Mayamaea species were recorded in two soda pans (Okanj bara and Bela bara). The unknown Mayamaea can easily be distinguished from similar species by the valve outline and shape of the central area using light and scanning electron microscopy. In a metabarcoding (partial 18S rRNA gene sequence) data set from the same sample, we could identify two amplicon sequence variants showing affinities to the genus Mayamaea, one of them matching published sequences from M. permitis, the other without exact matches in the Diat.barcode and NCBI databases. We conclude that the latter probably belongs to the new Mayamaea species observed by microscopy, which indicates that the unknown Mayamaea species is closely related to but different from Mayamaea terrestris.
Based on morphological features and molecular analyses, we consider the unknown Mayamaea species as a species new to science. Bearing in mind the vulnerability of soda pans due to anthropogenic threats and climate change, knowing which species inhabit these habitats is the first step in preserving these unique ecosystems.

abstract = "Soda pans located in the northern part of Serbia are alkaline and very shallow water habitats influenced by seasonal drying. Due to the rareness, vulnerability, and specific biota, these saline habitats have high conservation priority according to the EU Habitats Directive (92/43/EC).
Since 2017, ten soda pans have been intensively studied with the aim to determine the diatom biodiversity and to evaluate ecological conditions. Diatom samples were collected from mud and reed, and samples for molecular analyses were additionally collected in 2021.
The diatom community is mostly composed of species that prefer alkaline conditions and high conductivity. Some of the most dominant genera are Nitzschia and Navicula. Among the recorded diatoms, Mayamaea permitis and one unknown Mayamaea species were recorded in two soda pans (Okanj bara and Bela bara). The unknown Mayamaea can easily be distinguished from similar species by the valve outline and shape of the central area using light and scanning electron microscopy. In a metabarcoding (partial 18S rRNA gene sequence) data set from the same sample, we could identify two amplicon sequence variants showing affinities to the genus Mayamaea, one of them matching published sequences from M. permitis, the other without exact matches in the Diat.barcode and NCBI databases. We conclude that the latter probably belongs to the new Mayamaea species observed by microscopy, which indicates that the unknown Mayamaea species is closely related to but different from Mayamaea terrestris.
Based on morphological features and molecular analyses, we consider the unknown Mayamaea species as a species new to science. Bearing in mind the vulnerability of soda pans due to anthropogenic threats and climate change, knowing which species inhabit these habitats is the first step in preserving these unique ecosystems.",

AB  - Combining morphological and molecular approaches, a new diatom species is described in the genus Mayamaea from a Special Nature Reserve, Okanj bara in Serbia, an alkaline and subsaline soda pan with pronounced seasonal drying. Mayamaea pannonica sp. nov. possesses typical characteristics of the genus Mayamaea, such as uniseriate striae and hymenes that cover the areolae from the outside. It can easily be distinguished from similar species by the valve outline and shape of the central area.
Although presently no culture of the species is available, we identified in an amplicon data set from the
same sample a partial 18S rRNA gene sequence that is thought to represent the new species, with high
probability. A comparison of our sequence to those present in the Diat.barcode and NCBI databases
showed that the sequence is closely related to, but significantly different from, that of Mayamaea
terrestris. Natural saline habitats in Serbia and neighbouring countries are under anthropogenic threat
and climate change, so knowing which species live here is the first step in preserving these unique
habitats.

AB  - During a survey of diatoms in the artificial sandpit lake “Peskara” in the protected zone of the Rusanda Nature Park, a large number of brackish taxa at epipsamic and epiphytic communities were recorded (e.g. Bacillaria paxillifera, Caloneis permagna, Ctenophora pulchella, Entomoneis costata. Haslea duerrenbergiana, Navicula salinarum, Nitzschia agnita, N. filiformis, Staurophora brantii, Seminavis strigosa, Tryblionella apiculata). One new genus Seminavis and 15 diatom species were noted for the first time for the diatom flora of Serbia. Dominant taxa changed over seasons without any regularity. In spring 2021, we have observed an increased abundance of centric species Thalassiosira pseudonana and Stephanodiscus parvus while in other seasons it was difficult to discern a pattern of dominance among benthic diatoms. Metabarcoding analysis of the same sample using 18S rRNA as a gene marker confirmed the dominance of centric diatoms. This study contributes to a better understanding of brackish diatom taxa found in inland habitats, many of which can be utilized as useful tools for the ecological status assessment.

AB  - In 2021 a charophyte survey was conducted in the southern part of the Carpathian Basin, the Vojvodina province (Serbia). We investigated 14 waterbodies that were different in origin (natural, natural degraded, artificial) and were chosen along the gradient of salinity. Furthermore, waterbodies were characterized according to their ion composition: cations (potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium) and anions (carbonate, bicarbonate, chloride, sulfate). Several other environmental parameters were investigated, such as temperature, pH, conductivity, nutrient content (ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, total phosphorus) and chlorophyll a. A gradient of salinity, calculated from electrical conductivity (Boros et al. 2013), ranged from freshwater to mesosaline (Hammer 1986). Magnesium was the dominant cation in seven waterbodies, frequently in combination with calcium, while sodium prevailed in three waterbodies. Bicarbonate made up a major portion of anions in nine, sulfate in three, and chloride in two waterbodies. Altogether, seven charophytes species were found: Chara canescens, Chara tenuispina, Chara connivens, Chara vulgaris, Chara globularis, Chara hispida and Chara papillosa. All species were found in subsaline waters, except C. papillosa, found only in freshwaters. Only three species, C. tenuispina, C. vulgaris and C. canescens, were found in hyposaline waters. We found no charophytes in mesohaline
waters. Extremely rare male individuals of C. canescens were found in Pečena Slatina, a natural saline pond. This species showed a preference for hypertrophic and alkaline hyposaline aquatic habitats, with a different pattern of ionic predominance (sodium, magnesium, sulfate, bicarbonate, chloride). All species but C. connivens and C. papillosa were found in eutrophic waters. In addition, two species, C. hispida and C. canescens, showed tolerance to higher values of nitrates (> 3 mg L–1). In conclusion, we could state that inland saline habitats, despite their high productivity, represent important habitats for charophytes, especially for rare species such as C. canescens and C. tenuispina.

AB  - Along six transects in each of six lakes across the Western Balkans, we collected data for three groups of littoral biological water quality indicators: epilithic diatoms, macrophytes, and benthic invertebrates. We assessed the relationships between them and three environmental pressures: nutrient load (eutrophication), hydro-morphological alteration of the shoreline, and water level variation, separating the effect of individual lakes and continuous explanatory variables. Lake water total phosphorus concentration (TP) showed substantial variation but was not related to any of the tested biological indicators, nor to any of the tested pressures. We suggest that this may be due to feedback processes such as P removal in the lake littoral zone. Instead, we found that a gradient in surrounding land-use towards increasing urbanization, and a land-use-based estimate of P run-off, served as a better descriptor of eutrophication. Overall, eutrophication and water level fluctuation were most important for explaining variation in the assessed indicators, whereas shoreline hydro-morphological alteration was less important. Diatom indicators were most responsive to all three pressures, whereas macrophyte biomass and species number responded only to water level fluctuation. The Trophic Diatom Index for Lakes (TDIL) was negatively related to urbanization and wave exposure. This indicates that it is a suitable indicator for pressures related to urbanization, although a confounding effect of wave exposure is possible. Invertebrate abundance responded strongly to eutrophication, but the indicator based on taxonomic composition (Average Score Per Taxon) did not. Our results suggest that our metrics can be applied in Western Balkan lakes, despite the high number of endemic species present in some of these lakes. We argue that local water management should focus on abating the causes of eutrophication and water level fluctuation, whilst preserving sufficient lengths of undeveloped shoreline to ensure good water quality in the long run.

AB  - In the present study, a new species, Nitzschia haloserbica Vidaković, Ector, C.E.Wetzel & Krizmanić, sp. nov., is described from alkaline saline ponds and channels from Vojvodina Province (Serbia). In 2019 the new species was found in four saline ponds: Bela Bara, Čoka Kopovo, Velika Rusanda and Slatina. The same species was recorded four years ago in saline lakes in Hungary, but the authors listed it as Nitzschia sp. 2. The sigmoid valve outline of the new Nitzschia Hassall species is similar to N. austriaca Hust. but differs in striae density and fibulae distribution. In N. haloserbica sp. nov. the transapical striae are so dense that they are not visible in light microscopy. Both species have fibulae that are quite regularly distributed along the raphe canal, but in N. austriaca the central two fibulae are more widely spaced, reflecting the presence of central raphe endings, which are absent in N. haloserbica sp. nov. At the type locality (Bela Bara) both species were found with relative abundances of 94.93 % for N. haloserbica sp. nov. and 1.21 % for N. austriaca (of the 400 valves counting per slide). The valve morphology, ultrastructure and autecology of the new species are discussed and compared with morphologically similar taxa.

saline ecosystems are characterized by very specific and unique biodiversity Still,
biodiversity studies of saline habitats are mostly focused on lakes and ponds of natural

phytobenthos in the saline pond near Kikinda city (in Vojvodina, the northern province of
Serbia) that was artificially made by commercial clay digging and abandoned in the
landscape of the city suburban over time Collecting samples and field measurements
were conducted in July 2018 The dense cover of macrophytes in the litoral area consisted
of a carpet of Chara canescens with sparse specimens of Zannichellia palustris This is the
second currently known locality of C canescens in Serbia which was recently
rediscovered Despite the relatively wide range of this typically brackish species,
populations of C canescens are isolated, and it is worldwide considered
threatened/endangered and rare A total number of 27 algal taxa were detected in
phytoplankton A few taxa characteristic for saline or brackish water were detected
Oocystis submarina Merismopedia warmingiana Euglena proxima However, the majority
of detected taxa can be characterized as halotolerant In the phytobenthic community 15

diversity, typical for saline habitats, was observed in relation to all communities, however
typically brackish, rare/endangered species were recorded Since our preliminary results
(obtained after one sampling occasion) indicate the potential for detecting specific
biodiversity in macrophyte, phytoplankton, and phytobenthic communities in one artificial

AB  - The main aim of this study was to investigate the application of benthic diatoms and the efficiency of diatom
indices in water ecological assessment of rivers in Serbia, as well as the influence of trout farms on rivers water
quality. Research was conducted in one year period along the Crnica and Radovanska rivers (Eastern Serbia), in
11 sampling sites (taking into account the position of trout fish farms that are built on both rivers). Results
showed that fish farms affect the physical and chemical parameters, as well as diversity of the epilithic diatom
assemblage along the rivers. Canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) indicated that among tested physical and
chemical parameters, conductivity “EC”, water hardness “WH”, sulfates “SO42-”, ionized ammonia fraction “NH4+”,
nitrates “NO3–
“, “pH”, mud, stone and depth were the most important variables affecting the distribution of
diatom species. A total of 206 epilithic diatom taxa were recorded in the Radovanska and 170 in the Crnica River.
Based on diatom indices, trout fish farms have no significant negative impact on the water quality of the
investigated rivers (indices are not enough sensitive). Redundancy analysis (RDA) showed a high degree of
correlation between the majority of indices which mostly indicated to good water quality of studied rivers. TID
and TDI were the only two indices indicating moderate and poor water quality of both rivers. Water quality based
on the TIDRS, the first proposed diatom index for Serbia was differ in two classes in most sites compairing with
TID.

AB  - The artificial sandpit lake “Peskara“ is located between the two saline lakes, Lake Velika Rusanda and
Lake Mala Rusanda, in the protected zone of Rusanda Nature Park (Vojvodina, Serbia). The lake was
created by human activity for the exploitation of sand. The depression (on average 4.4 m deep, around
205 m long, and 107 m wide) was filled with water that can be classified into sodium bicarbonate
chemical type. Over time a stable diatom community developed. During observations of the samples
collected from the sand and reed during 2019 and 2020, 111 diatom taxa belonging to 37 genera were
recorded. 14 diatom taxa and one genus (Seminavis) were noted for the first time for the diatom flora of
Serbia. Fresh alkaline waters with elevated concentrations of electrolytes (1860–1950 μS/cm) enabled
the development of freshwater diatoms (e.g. Achnanthidium minutissimum, Gomphonema parvulum)
but also diatoms characteristic for brackish and coastal waters, such as Bacillaria paxillifera, Entomoneis
costata, Haslea duerrenbergiana, Pleurosigma salinarum, Staurophora brantii, Seminavis strigosa, etc.
Many of these species have not been found in saline lakes and ponds in the Vojvodina province, which
makes “Peskara“ a significant “hotspot” from the aspect of diatom biodiversity. This artificial sandpit lake
requires more detailed research in order to obtain a certain degree of legal protection and to prevent
possible backfilling and habitat loss for many diatom species.

AB  - Saline habitats, such as lakes, ponds and channels in the Vojvodina Province (Serbia) are alkaline and unique due to their specific physical and chemical features. During three years (2017-2019) we investigated 10 different saline lakes, ponds and channels in the Serbian part of the Carpathian Basin. By far the most abundant genus was Nitzschia Hassall with 27 recorded taxa. Some of them are characteristic for electrolyte rich waters, e.g. N. frustulum, N. palea, N. inconspicua, N. supralitorea. However, we found species specific for marine and brackish waters, e.g. N. communis, N. thermaloides, N. reversa. Of all recorded Nitzschia species four taxa could not be identified to species level. One of them with sigmoid outline, Nitzschia sp. 2, is very similar to N. austriaca but differs in striae density and distribution of fibulae. In Nitzschia sp. 2 transapical striae are not visible in LM. In addition, in both species fibulae are quite regularly distributed along the raphe canal, but in N. austriaca the central fibulae are more widely spaced than in the other species. In Lake Bela bara we found both species with abundance of 94.93% for Nitzschia sp. 2. and 1.21% for N. austriaca. The poster illustrates the Nitzschia diversity in inland saline waters in Vojvodina Province, with an emphasis on sigmoid Nitzschia species that might be new to science.

saline lakes are unique habitats, highly susceptible to negative effects of
climate change and adverse anthropogenic activities Recently, several indices,
including a trait based index ( have been developed for the assessment of their
ecological status The TBI index is calculated as a ratio of traits (diatom groups) that
indicate good or excellent ecological conditions (motile species with small cell size
and more elongated valves) and traits that are related to degraded ecological status
(low and high profile ecological guilds and planktic life form) We tested the
applicability of the TBI index in Lake Luda š that was originally an alkaline saline lake
Epiphytic diatoms together with water samples for chemical analyses, were collected
in June 2019 at the southern part of the lake where a dense population of
Ceratophylum demersum was observed A total of 35 diatom taxa were identified in
this hyposaline lake The highest number of species belonged to the genus
Nitzschia Typical sodic water taxa for this part of the Pannonian Plain, such as
Nitzschia austriaca Navicula veneta and N wiesneri were not observed Instead,
species characteristic for disturbed saline habitats, for example Navicula wendlingii
and Tabularia fasciculata, were recorded In Lake Luda š functional groups of
diatoms connected with high conductivity reached only one third of the total
abundance On the other hand, a higher percentage of low and high profile guilds
and planktic diatoms were recorded Consequently, the TBI index indicated the low
ecological status of Lake Luda š and confirmed the negative effect of a disturbed

AB  - Soda pans are protected in the European
Union as Natura 2000 areas in the category of
‘‘Pannonic saline steppes and marshes’’. There are at
least six soda pans of reference status in Serbia and
only a half have strict legal protection. The number of
similar, but disturbed (modified) habitats that could be
reconstructed is still unknown. We conducted sampling
in five natural and two disturbed soda pans
aiming to compare a difference in physical and
chemical water properties and benthic diatom communities.
In addition, we tried to apply recently
developed Diatom Index for Soda Pans (DISP) and
Trait-based index (TBI) to test the applicability of
taxonomic and trait-based approaches in ecological
status assessment of soda pans in the southern part of the Carpathian Basin. In contrast to natural soda pans,
lower pH and nutrients levels were recorded in
disturbed pans. A total of 86 taxa of benthic diatoms,
including 11 new for diatom flora of Serbia, were
identified. A lower species richness and Shannon
index was recorded in natural soda pans. Nitzschia
austriaca, N. supralitorea, Navicula veneta and N.
wiesneri were dominant diatoms in soda pans of the
reference status. Both diatom indices were in average
lower in disturbed pans, and this difference was
statistically significant for DISP index. We concluded
that two indices, supplemented with indicator values
for some local diatom species, can be a promising tool
for soda pan conservation in this part of the Carpathian
Basin.

AB  - Aerophytic phototrophs, colonizers of different substrates exposed to air, among which are rock substrates in cave habitats, are in general not sufficiently investigated and studied. From the ecological point of view, seasonal/temporal variations and parameters that influence aerophytic phototrophic communities through seasons still remain largely unknown. Seasonal analysis of phototrophic microorganisms from biofilms developed at entrances of Samar and Jezava caves in Eastern Serbia was performed four times a year. All identified phototrophic representatives were assigned to a certain division or group. The relationship between documented groups and different measured, determined and observed ecological parameters was illustrated using principal component analysis (PCA). A high diversity of cyanobacteria and algae was observed as a result of seasonal sampling: 141 taxa in Samar and 61 taxa in Jezava Cave. Cyanobacteria were dominant in both caves (coccoid forms prevailing) and were followed by Bacillariophyta. Bacillariophyta were positively correlated with light intensity and sites where seeping water was present, and cyanobacteria with water content in biofilm, Chl a and relative air humidity. Higher diversity of phototrophs was documented in December and March, and lower in May and August in both caves with Chl a values having the same trend as the diversity of phototrophic microorganisms. This was especially the case with biofilms in which diversity was more prone to seasonal changes and where Cyanobacteria dominated. Only 24 taxa were documented during all four seasons in Samar Cave (Cyanobacteria, Bacillariophyta and Chlorophyta representatives) and three in Jezava Cave (Cyanobacteria only).

AB  - Phototrophic microorganisms can be found in biofilms at entrances to caves where they have access to sufficient
sunlight, water and nutrients; however, they can also be found inside caves, where they are carried by animals and people, and
can proliferate in the presence of artificial light. Although the genus Humidophila includes some well-known cosmopolitan
species, further exploration of its rare, insufficiently investigated representatives in different geographical areas and unusual
habitats is necessary. Caves remain unknown, little-explored habitats, and many species currently known to science were
recorded for the first time. This study aimed to report species belonging to the genus Humidophila that were identified in
19 caves in Serbia. A total of ten species of this genus were recorded and some of them are documented for the first time
in Serbia. The most abundant species were H. contenta (found in 16 caves), H. paracontenta, and H. aerophila (found in 13
caves), whereas H. pyrenaica was identified in only one cave. The rare species, H. brekkaensoides and H. vidalii, were also
documented and described, but with different dimensions from those provided in current identification keys.

AB  - Domination of certain aerophytic phototrophic group or specific taxon in biofilms is connected with biofilm features recognised in situ. Well-developed, gelatinous, olive to dark-green biofilms are composed mostly of coccoid cyanobacterial forms. The same features, characterised biofilms dominated by one coccoid taxon, except the latter were vividly coloured. Gloeobacter caused the appearance of purple, Gloeocapsa representatives yellow and Chroococcidiopsis black biofilm. The brown to the dark colour of heterocytous biofilms was mainly caused by Nostoc. Simple trichal Cyanobacteria were occasionally present in biofilm, except in one blue-coloured sample. According to the principal component analysis (PCA), well-developed and gelatinous biofilms were correlated with Cyanobacteria, while scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed richness of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) in such biofilms. Biofilm with calcified cyanobacterium (Geitleria cf. calcarea) was also found. Chlorophyta-abundant biofilms (many rich in Desmococcus), thinner than cyanobacterial, were predominantly green and occasionally yellow and blue. Many were dry when observed in situ (confirmed with PCA), with few being moistened (i.e. Klebsormidium-dominant). Diatom biofilms were usually developed on sediment, mosses or near seeping water (demonstrated by PCA) and were also thinner than cyanobacterial ones. Compared to cyanobacterial biofilms, SEM showed less developed EPS in those rich in diatoms and green algae, where microorganisms are more exposed to the environment. The study demonstrates an easy method for biofilm assessment based on visual characterisation and provides encouragement for more frequent biofilm investigation in caves that can be important from an ecological, biological, biotechnological point of view and which assessment can have an irreplaceable role in potential monitoring and protection.

AB  - Biological assessmentmetrics and water chemistry measurements are used to quantify the link between stressors
and their effects on lake ecosystems, for the Water Framework Directive. However, correlations between metrics
andwater chemistry are often poor. This is seen as majorweaknesses ofWater Framework Directive-relatedmonitoring
and assessment.We analyzed macrophytes, benthic algae, benthic macroinvertebrates, water chemistry
and sediment total phosphorus content in the littoral of six lakes in the Western Balkans and used CORINE land
use data to estimate nutrient enrichment via runoff from the adjacent land. Lakes with a higher estimated phosphorus
runoff fromthe adjacent land did not have higher littoralwater nutrient concentrations, but littoral diatom
assemblages indicated more eutrophic conditions. These lakes also had higher abundances of littoral benthic primaryproducers,
which in turnwere associatedwithlowconcentrations of dissolved nutrients, but only in autumn,
not in spring. This is consistent with primary producers taking up nutrients during the summer growth season. In
lakeswith high abundances of benthic primary producers, it is likely that the littoral vegetation plays a large role in
the transfer of nutrients from the water to the benthos. This process impairs correlations between biological metrics
and water nutrient concentrations. Our results suggest that CORINE land cover may be more useful to characterize
littoral nutrient enrichment than lake water chemistry. Increased benthic primary producer biomasses and
“eutrophic” diatom indicesmay indicate littoral nutrient enrichment even ifwater nutrient concentrations are low
