The aim of the study was to establish the species taxonomic composition and the quantitative characteristics of plankton in the Cape Maslen Nos area. Representatives of the Protozoa, Rotatoria, Annelida, Mollusca and Arthropoda predominated in the composition structure of zooplankton whereas members of Bacillariophyta, Chrysophyta, Dinophyta, Cyanophyta, Euglenophyta in that of phytoplankton. The comparative analysis of phytoplankton data shows that the highest mean biomass values were 24.76 ? 33.33 g/m3 and mean biomass values of zooplankton ? 51.43 g/m3.
