Periphyton covered by calcareous precipitations in the Everglades is mostly dominated by cyanobacteria (Cyanoprokaryota, blue-green algae). In some areas of the Everglades, diatoms, desmids, and a few species of filamentous green algae form a significant part of the periphyton. Filamentous green algae (e.g., Spirogyra spp. or Mougeotia spp.) are found mostly in areas with elevated nutrient levels (Van Meter 1965; Wood and Maynard 1974; Swift and Nicholas 1987; Vymazal and Richardson 1995). It has been repeatedly reported that the major factor affecting periphyton growth and species composition is water quality and, especially, phosphorus concentration in the water.
