. Spatial distribution and quantitative characteristics of the main bottom communities in the North-Eastern Black Sea, characterized by the prevalence of the native bivalve species Chamelea gallina and Pitar rudis , have been considered for the autumn season of 2019. Within the investigated region, at the depth of 18 m, the largest area of sandy biotopes with silt and shell admixture was occupied by a community dominated by the bivalve mollusc Ch. gallina . At the depth of 30 m, a community of the pelophilic bivalve mollusc P. rudis was observed on silty substrate with shells and, at times, sand admixture. In the Chamelea community, molluscs were the most prominent group in terms of abundance and biomass. In the Pitar community, polychaetes were the most abundant in the benthic community, while molluscs prevailed in terms of their biomass. If compared with the data of the 1960s, the contemporary analysis of the materials presented indicates a decrease in the biomass of the macrozoobenthos down to 93 g/m 2 and of the dominant species down to 41 g/m 2 in the Chamelea community, which is associated with the predominance of small individuals in the mollusc populations. In the autumn of 2019, despite the appearance of invading species, the native species prevailed in the main regional biocoenoses.

. The physiological state of a sample of so-iuy mullet Planiliza haematocheila (Temminck & Schlegel, 1845) from the Azov Sea at the end of its wintering period is analyzed. The state of females and males was assessed by the content of total protein, moisture and lipids in the muscles, liver and gonads, by protein content, including albumin and globulins, cholesterol, triglycerides in the blood serum, and by the characteristics of the variation series of oocyte diameters in females. The reduced content of protein and fat in the muscles and liver, fat in the gonads of females, and carotenoids in the liver and gonads is noted in comparison with the long-term data characteristic for the early spring period. The content of protein, cholesterol and triglycerides in blood serum was also reduced. Values of protein coefficient (albumin-to-globulin ratio) did not exceed 0.73, which is not typical for this blood serum parameter (normally above 1.0). The dynamics of the investigated biochemical parameters of blood indicated an insufficiently active transport of nutrients, in particular albumin and triglycerides, to the organs and tissues. The females had gonads of the 3 rd maturity stage; diameter of the oocytes reached 0.25– 0.35 mm, and larger oocytes have not been recorded in the majority of the investigated fish individuals, which suggests a lower degree of gonadal maturity during this period. Satisfactory physiological state of the so-iuy mullet at the end of its wintering is associated with a significant decrease in temperature in early November 2018, which led to a decrease in the duration of autumn feeding and to an earlier onset of the wintering period.
