The settlement of anthropogenic water-bodies of Silesia by Ferrissia
clessiniana (Jickeli)
Małgorzata Strzelec
In last two decades
Ferrissia clessiniana (Jickeli, 1802) was
observed in anthropogenic water-bodies in Silesia (Southern Poland).
Formerly this species was found only in Western and Central Poland. In
Silesia it settles the subsidence ponds, sand- and gravel-pits and dam
reservoirs, where lives mostly in the rush belts. In the absence of
vegetation
F. clessiniana inhabits the stones, covered with
periphyton layer, and the remains of decayed water-plants and leaves of
waterside trees. Never forms the dense populations.
