COUNTING FEATURE VARIABILITY OF THE CRUCIAN CARP CARASSIUS CARASSIUS (L.) (CYPRINIDAE, ACTINOPTERYGII) FROM SMALL PONDS WITH VARIOUS LEVELS OF ANTHROPOGENIC POLLUTION

The intrapopulation and interpopulation variability of ten counting features of the external morphology and skeleton in individuals of the crucian carp from three small ponds differing by their anthropogenic pollution level was studied. A statistically significant trend of the decreasing average population values with increasing the water salinity in the small ponds was revealed for five non-metric osteological signs.
