Abstract

The aim of the paper is to present summarized literature data to provide the first systematic inventory of Croatian freshwater Chlorophyceae taxa. The list is a result of the author's investigation and of detailed analyses of more then one hundred papers, published in the period 1900 to 1996. Degree of saprobity is included for all indicator species.
The list of freshwater Chlorophyceae consists of 97 genera with 412 species. Species indicators of o, o-ß, and ß-mesosaprobity are predominant (95 %). The most common species in the biotopes investigated were: Crucigenia rectangularis Gay., Coelastrum astroideum De Not., Scenedesmus acuminatus Chod., S. quadricauda Breb., S. obliquus Kütz., Closterium acerosum Ehr., C. aciculare West, and Cosmarium botrytis Menegh.
