Annotation	We studied the distribution of anoxygenic phototrophs in 23 steppe lakes in the Transbaikal region (Russia), in Uzbekistan (Central Asia) and in the Crimean peninsula (Ukraine). The lakes varied in their mineral content and composition (salinities from 0.2 to 300 g L(-1)). The Transbaikal lakes were alkaline (pH > 9), with high amounts of soda. The Uzbek and Crimean lakes were more pH neutral, frequently with high amounts of sulfates. The presence of anoxygenic phototrophs was registered by infrared epifluorescence microscopy, infrared fluorometry and pigment analyses
