Abstract

Typical morphological changes of epiphytic moss transplantats under the impact of environmental pollution in the city of Makeyevka (Donetsk region) are revealed.It is found that the degree of morphological characteristics of Orthotrichum pumilum Sw. (=Ortotrichum fallax Bruch.) and Leptodictium riparium (Hedw.)Warnst.positively correlates with the level of air pollution.These species can serve as the informative indicators of air quality in an industrial region.Relatively highly tolerance of Leskea polycarpa Hedw. to intensive air pollution is confirmed.The degree of anthropogenic pressure in three zones of Makeyevka (Donetsk region) is determined.
