The study focuses on the distribution of algae in the saline coastal water bodies of the Pryazov National Nature Park according to their habitat preferences. The research revealed that aquatic species form the basis of algal flora. Among them, diatoms are predominant in terms of species richness and frequency of occurrence. In the lake type estuaries and ephemeral water bodies, an increased number of amphibious species was found, which can be attributed to the varying inundation conditions of these water bodies. Among the amphibious species Cyanoprokaryota representatives dominate. Hierarchical clustering of the water bodies demonstrated a connection between the species composition of algae and the type of water bodies, which is consistent with their genesis and transformation.
