DIATOMS OF THE „KRALJEVAC“ SPECIAL NATURE RESERVE AND THEIR ROLE IN THE ASSESSMENT OF ECOLOGICAL POTENTIAL
The aim of the study is the analysis of the epiphytic diatoms community in three water bodies of the SRP "Kraljevac" and the evaluation of the preliminary ecological potential according to the national regulations of the Republic of Serbia. A total of 71 diatom taxa were recorded in the samples collected in the spring and autumn of 2024. This group of microalgae indicates a high and good ecological potential in the spring (I-II class) at all investigated sites, while in autumn deterioration of water quality at two sites was observed.
