abstract = "Due to their specific physical and chemical properties of water and soil soda pans of the
Vojvodina region represent a unique type of habitats. Salinity is a major structuring factor which
strongly affects species richness. Many halotolerant, alkalotolerant and halophilic organisms,
together with numerous eurytopic elements inhabit these kinds of ecosystems. In this review we
tried to compile the biodiversity information from various literature sources and give the best
representation of what can be expected to be found in these shallow, temporary and intermittent
aquatic environments. Only a few groups of organisms are fairly well studied, while many others
are insufficiently investigated or the knowledge of them is lacking altogether. Best investigated are
certain groups of algae and birds. Bacterial communities, as well as many invertebrate groups, are
poorly studied or not investigated at all. Characteristic elements of flora and fauna, together with
growing anthropogenic pressures make soda pans prime targets for protection.",
