| Abstract: | Samples of the Cyanobacteria and algae flora of the tundra surrounding the Hornsund fiord were collected from various types of habitats, differing in terms of moisture content, trophy, soil type and vegetation. Over 150 species of Cyanobacteria and algae were identified, including 72 species never observed before in Svalbard. The character and prevailing species compositions for particular habitat types were formulated, e.g. eutrophic habitats – Prasiola crispa (Lightf.) Menrgh. and Phormidium autumnale (Agardh.) Trevisan ex Gomont, for oligotrophic sites – Nostoc commune Vaucher and Nostoc punctiforme (Kützing) Hariot. |
