81 AbstractiLake Stechlin lies in Germany, on the southern boarder of the Mecklenburg Lake District. Recently, less research has focused on diatoms of the oligo-meso- trophic lake - contrary to phytoplankton studies. The aim of this study was to assess the current composition of benthic diatom communities of the lake and to estimate the trophic level based on TI diatom index. Phytobenthos samples were taken on 3 May 2013 from 23 different sites of the littoral zone of the lake from natural stone substrate. Species composition was determined with light and electron microscopes altogether, 70 species were found. Number of species (29±3), Shannon-Wiener diversity (2,36±0,23), evenness (0,70±0,06) did not show any diffemces between the sampling sites. Diatom communities of the littoral region showed an uniform picture, there was not considerable difference in the three basins of the lake. Eutrophic species were dominant (e.g. Cymbella compacta, Diatoma moniliforme, Fragilaria capucina var. vaucheriae, Nitzschia dissipata, Rhoicosphenia abbreviata, Gomphonema olivaceum, G. pumilum) and planctonic Centrales species (Stephanodiscus minutulus, S. neoastraea). We also found the dominance of some cosmopolitan species (Achnanthidium mi- nutissimum, Cocconeis placentula var. euglypta, Diatoma ehrenbergii) and broad tolerant species like Amphora pediculus. Trophic level of the lake was estimated with TI diatom index developed for German lakes, based on the index values the lake was eutrophic at each sampling sites. In the water samples low concentration of N and P forms were found - in contrast to the TI index - indicating mesotrophic state of the littoral zone.
