“…In the salted lakes, significant deposits of therapeutic mud are formed (Morariu et al, 1968). The composition of peloïds (therapeutic muds) is different and it depends on the natural conditions of their formation; they are the sediments which form as a result of the decomposition of flora and fauna under the influence of microbiological activity (Nikipelova, 2011).…”

“…Their salt concentration presents large variations; in some lakes, the salt quantity is limited to only a few grams per liter, whereas in others, it reaches the saturation (Morariu et al, 1968) (Table 1).…”

“…In the lakes with a concentration of salts below 100 g·dm -3 , where an extremely rich biological life is developed during the warm season (Techirghiol, Amara), large reserves of organogenic mud with sapropel character are found (Morariu et al, 1968).…”

“…In the lakes with a high content of salts (over 100g/l), in which the biological life is reduced and the amount of organic substance is smaller, compared to the anorganic elements that are stored, mud with mineral character is formed (Morariu et al, 1968).…”

“…Each salt lake is a therapeutic and spa individuality, their physicochemical properties, their geo-hydrological characteristics and the areas of vegetation in which they are fitted, give each lake its own features (Morariu et al, 1968).…”

Planktonic algal samples were collected from lakes with different salinity (Salt Lake Brăila, Amara Lake, Fundata Lake, Techirghiol Lake and Black Lake-Sovata), in which mud used in balneary therapy is formed. A total of 189 species were recorded: 35 Cyanobacteria, 10 Euglenophyceae, 96 Bacillariophyceae, 33 Chlorophyceae, 3 Chrysophyceae, 2 Cryptophyceae, 1 Xantophyceae and 9 Dinophyceae. The highest number of phytoplankton species was recorded in Techirghiol lake (127 species) and the lowest number in Black Lake-Sovata and Salt Lake Brăila (23 species). The species diversity of microalgae was compared in different pelogenous lakes. In the case of Cyanobacteria and Bacillariophyceae, the calculated values for the Sorensen similarity coefficient reflect a weak association of species in the pelogenous lakes, while in the case of Euglenophyceae, Chrysophyceae, Crysophyceae, Dinophyceae, Xanthophyceae classes, the comparison of the species diversity was impossible because they were not found in all the studied biotopes. The composition of the Chlorophyceae class was similar in the plankton of two clusters: cluster 1-Techirghiol lake and Black lake-Sovata; cluster 2-Salt lake-Brăila, Fundata lake. The hypersaline lake Techirghiol was the most algologically productive habitat, here forming the mud with the highest content of organic substance. Salt Lake Brăila and Black Lake-Sovata were the least algologically productive ecosystems; in both lakes mud with mineral developed fraction and organic component in small percentage are formed, although they are biotopes with different salinity, one being hypersaline, the other brackish.
