Abstract
The results of studies on the distribution of macrozoobenthic taxa along the water mineralization gradient in the small salt rivers of the Lake Elton basin are presented. The optimum and tolerance intervals for dominant species have been determined. Species with the highest tolerance to the high-salinity aquatic environment have been identified.
