Authors:	Pełechata Aleksandra Pełechaty Mariusz Pukacz Andrzej
Abstract:	In the summer seasons 2001 - 2004, water samples were collected in 25 shallow lakes in the area of the Lubuskie Lakeland (mid-western Poland). These investigations were the first detailed studies of phytoplankton in this part of Poland. A total of 73 taxa of Cyanoprokaryota were found. Two water blooms of Cyanoprokaryota were documented, with extremely high biomass in one of them. Water blooms were caused by Planktothrix agardhii, Anabaena flos-aquae and Pseudanabaena limnetica. The genus Anabaena represented the highest number of species. The occurrence of an invasive Cyanoprokaryota species - Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii - was detected in two lakes with the highest biomass of cyanoprokaryotic algae (where the above-mentioned blooms were observed).
