Abstract
Japanese cattail (Typha japonica Miq., section Ebracteolatae) has been restored to its valid taxonomic status and listed as one of the floras of the outmost southern Sakhalin and Kuril Islands for the first time. These are the first records of T. japonica in Russia. With the unique geography and current molecular data (rpl32-trnL intergenic spacer), the latter cattail's combination of morphological characters clearly distinguishes it from all other species of sect. Ebracteolatae (including T. caspica Pobed., T. elata Boreau, and T. tzvelevii Mavrodiev), and also from all currently known bract-less species of Typha, including the Eastern cattail (T. orientalis C.Presl.), with which T. japonica was arbitrarily synonymized previously.

Abstract
A quantitative assessment of microplastic (MP) content has been conducted in the gastrointestinal tract of perch, roach, and bream in Lake Kubenskое in Vologda oblast. MPs are detected in 60% of bream specimens and 43% of perch specimens. Plastic microparticles are not found in the gastrointestinal tract of the roach. It is found that the average number of MP particles is 1.6 ± 0.4 items per bream individual and 4.2 ± 1.4 items of MP per perch individual. MPs in the gastrointestinal tract of fish are mainly fibers, with a small proportion of fragments and films. No significant differences (р > 0.05) in the content of MPs in the gastrointestinal tract of benthivorous (bream) and euryphagous (perch) fish are found. These data are the first evidence of the presence of MPs in fish in the water bodies of Vologda oblast.

Abstract
Our previous studies showed that the change in the plankton response to light could be an indicator of environmental pollution. This study experimentally reveals that the response of Daphnia magna Straus and Daphnia pulex plankton ensembles to photostimulation depends on the intensity of the attracting light. This makes it difficult to identify the occurrence and change of pollutant concentration. The large variability in the magnitude of the behavioral response is caused by the nonlinear response of plankton ensembles to the intensity of the attractor stimulus. As the intensity of the photostimulation increases, the variability of the phototropic response passes through increase, decrease, and relative stabilization phases. This paper proposes a modification of the photostimulation method: paired photostimulation involving the successive exposure to two photostimuli of increasing intensity. The first stimulus stabilizes the behavioral response, while the increase in response to the second stimulus makes it possible to more accurately assess the responsiveness of the plankton ensemble. The study demonstrates good reliability and increased sensitivity of this method of detecting changes in environmental toxicity when compared with single photostimulation or traditional bioindication through the survival rate of test organisms.

Abstract
The influence of different types of microplastics (MPs) and ash after burning a mixture of macroplastics selected in the supralittoral of the Barents Sea on the development of traditional test objects of the culture of the green microalgae Scenedesmus quadricauda and a culture of cladocerans Daphnia magna in chronic experiments has been studied. In terms of the inhibition of algal growth at a concentration of 3 mg/L of MPs, the PU sample shows the highest toxicity, followed by HDPE (white), HDPE (red), and contact EPS in descending order of toxicity. PP was nontoxic. Ash in the concentration range of 0.01–1000 mg/L does not significantly inhibit the growth of Scenedesmus quadricauda. For Daphnia magna, a more expressed decrease in the mean linear size is noted with the addition of intact EPS, and the stimulation of fertility is significantly higher in the presence of contact EPS. When comparing the effect of intact and contact PU on D. magna, the death of all individuals under the influence of intact PU is found; when adding PU, survival remained at the control level. MP particles and ash affect the trophic activity of daphnia when fed with chlorella, but this effect does not lead to changes in fertility and growth during long-term observation.

Abstract
The bottom communities of the nearshore zone of the Valaam archipelago (Lake Ladoga) have been investigated. The stations were located in the littoral, sublittoral, and profundal at depths of 1–25 m. Three regions with different characteristics of the coast shore and relief were researched. A sampler-syringe was used to collect benthos, because it works the whole of grounds variety in the nearshore. The quantative characteristics of the bottom communities had been optimally described with the depth ranges. The wave activity significantly affected only the numbers of zoobenthos in the upper 10 m. The openness of the bay had a greater influence on the abundance and biomass of benthos in the range of 1–10 m, presumably taking into account the influence of reflected waves. The biggest numbers and biomass of zoobenthos were in the littoral of the close bay. In the semiclose bay and on the open coast, the maximum abundance of benthic invertebrates shifted in the sublittoral (depth >8 m), where waves affected the benthic communities less. The types of ground significantly affected only the taxonomical composition. In general, the preferential effect on the quantity characteristics of benthos on the rocky slope zone had the features of a shore (openness and depth patterns). These data can be used for inspections of the next influences on the nearshore benthic community and for analyzing and modeling the commercial resources and their forage base.

Abstract
The results of a quantitative assessment of the content of microplastics (MPs) in Siberian wood frog (Rana amurensis) larvae and the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of adults from the floodplain of the Goloustnaya River flowing into Baikal Lake are presented. MP particles are found in the GITs of 83% (n = 18) of Siberian wood frogs aged 1+ to 4+. In the GITs of R. amurensis adults, MP particles are represented by microfibers (84.6%), microspheres (6.2%), microfilms (6.2%), and irregularly shaped fragments (3.0%). The sizes of MPs range from 0.3 to 5 mm. The average number of particles in frog GITs is 3.5 ± 3.6 per individual, with a spread from 0 to 11.6 particles. No significant correlations are found between the level of MP accumulation and the age of individuals of different sexes. No MPs are found in R. amurensis larvae (n = 120), which is largely due to the low productivity of temporary shallow breeding water bodies in the floodplain of the Goloustnaya River, which are experiencing powerful anthropogenic pressure (transport, grazing, and hay harvesting). The detection of MPs in the GITs of adult Siberian wood frogs indirectly indicates the contamination of the valley and the mouth of the Goloustnaya River, including the coast of Lake Baikal. The data obtained in this study are the first evidence of the presence of MPs in amphibians in the Russian Federation.

Abstract
The incorporation of microplastic particles (MPs) into the microbial food web and their impact on physiology of consuming organisms remains largely underexplored. The heterotrophic dinoflagellate Oxyrrhis marina is an excellent model for understanding these processes. In this study, flow cytometry was used to analyze the dynamics of consumption by this predator of its natural prey, the microalga Isochrysis galbana (ISO), and plastic microspheres (MS) of the same size. Furthermore, the effects of the diets containing these components on the swimming speed and movement patterns of Oxyrrhis marina cells were assessed. This was achieved using a computational method for analyzing video recordings of O. marina movement. It was observed from the first minutes of the experiment that the dinoflagellates actively consumed both types of prey, but by the end of the experiment, the number of MS in the medium decreased to a lesser extent, from 4.4 to 2.2 × 105 cells/mL, while Isochrysis galbana cells were almost completely grazed, with their abundance dropping by more than two orders of magnitude, from 4.9 × 105 cells/mL to 2.3 × 103 cells/mL. Such dynamics were associated with a compensatory increase in the number of microspheres in the medium due to their excretion and repeated phagocytosis by Oxyrrhis marina. Interestingly, the ingestion of plastic microspheres, which led to an increase in dinoflagellate cell size, did not significantly reduce their mobility or impair their locomotion. The ‘unproductive’ consumption of microplastics, which provided no nutritional benefit, resulted in a statistically significant reduction in dinoflagellate abundance compared to controls and the microalgae-fed experiment. This decline was attributed to the high energy expenditure of the population in constantly searching for, phagocytosing, and excreting microspheres. Contrary to expectations, the predators did not abandon this unproductive feeding strategy. Instead, their cell mobility increased over time, exacerbating the situation. These processes could have far-reaching negative implications for the entire food web. Specifically, microplastics 'packaged' by unicellular organisms could be transferred to higher trophic levels, potentially accumulating in mollusks, fish, and larger predators.

Abstract
For the first time, light microscopy has been used to study the parameters of blood cells for the Black Sea sprat (Clupeonella cultriventris Nordmann, 1840) from the Ivankovo Reservoir with trypanosomes in the peripheral blood. A shift in the composition of erythrocytes towards immature cells, lymphopenia, an increase in the proportion of immature granulocytes, and a decrease in the proportion of platelets have been detected. It is noted that fish of this species had not previously been infected with trypanosomes in the Ivankovo Reservoir.

Abstract
The results of the research of the microplastic accumulation in the floodplain alluvium of the river Volga in the area of Tver are presented Soil samples were taken within the city, upstream and downstream of the river. Samples were processed using a modified method of the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Microplastic particles were detected in all samples, the largest amount was found in the area where plastic production and processing enterprises are located. It has been established that films, granules and fragments of plastic particles predominate in all selected samples ranging in size from 1 to 2.5 mm along the largest axis.

Abstract
Plastic pollution in Asian rivers is one of the global problems of the region. This work has been performed to identify microplastic (MP) particles in the tissues of some species of hydrobionts from the Mekong Delta, one of the largest rivers in Southeast Asia. The method of tissue decomposition with 30% hydrogen peroxide is used. The presence of MP particles is revealed in 11 of 12 fish species and in 6 crustacean species. The dominant type of plastic in both fish and crustaceans is blue-violet fibers.
