Abstract

Cyanophyta of some paddy fields of Golestan Province (North of Iran and near Caspian Sea) have been studied between autumn 2006 and summer 2007.  Lyngbya perelegans, L. rubida, L. laxespiralis, L. sordida, L. putealis, L. dendrobia, L. scotii, L. polysiphoniae, L. erugineo–coerulea, L. cryptovaginata, L. spiralis, L. nigra, L. kashyapii are new records for Golestan province and Iran. Results showed that Lyngbya rubida, in spring and winter, L. perelegan in summer, L. kashyapii and L. dendrobia in autumn were dominant species in all stations. Morphological characteristics of these species and some information about their ecological distribution are given.

Abstract [Persian]

در این تحقیق 17 گونه جلبک از شالیزارهای استان گلستان شناسایی گردید. فلور جلبکی از 5 ایستگاه در شالیزارهای مورد مطالعه طی پائیز 1386 تا تابستان 1387 انتخاب شد.
 Lyngbya perelegans Lemm,. L. rubida Fremy, L. laxespiralis Skuja, L. sordida Gomont, L. putealis Mont. ex Gomont, L. dendrobia Bruhl & Biswas, L. scotii Fritsch, L. polysiphoniae Fremy, L. erugineo–coerulea Gomont, L. cryptovaginata Schkorbatow, L. spiralis Geitler, L. nigra C. Ag. ex Gomont, L. kashyapii Ghose برای اولین بار از شالیزارهای ایران گزارش می‌گردند.
 Lyngbya rubida در فصل بهار و زمستان، L. perelegans  در فصل  تابستان، L. kashyapii   و L. dendrobia  در فصل  پاییز گونه‌های غالب در همه ی ایستگاهها بودند. ویژگیهای آرایه شناسی این گونه‌ها و اطلاعات پیرامون پراکنش اکولوژیکی آنها نیز ارائه می‌گردد.
