This paper reports a study on the metal content of Black Sea algae from 1979 to 1988. Pollution was found to increase during this time. The metals accumulated in different algal taxa were: in green algae, Al, Cr and Fe; in brown algae, As and Sr; in red algae, Ag, Cd, Co, Cu, Hg, Mn, Pb, Se and Zn. The role of the valence number of the metals accumulated in the algae could not be related to their systematic position
