Abstract

Information on the distribution in the Urals of the rotifer of the genus Keratella, family Brachionidae, is summarized based on the author’s research and analysis of literature sources. Data on their localities, biology, and quantitative development in the Urals’ waters are presented. Keratella cochlearis and K. quadrata are the most common and abundant. Keratella irregularis and K. tecta also play important roles in zooplankton communities. The other six species of the genus are rare in the Urals.
