Abstract
The variability of Actinocyclus kuetzingii (A.S.) Sim. in the Littorina deposits of the Vistula Lagoon and Lake Druzno were studied. During the time of the Littorina Lake Druzno was a part of the Vistula Lagoon. In the different parts of the Lagoon both the abundance of A. kuetzingii and the diameter of its valves change in a manner associated with phases of the Littorina transgression. Coscinodiscus (Actinocyclus) kuetzingii fo. subsalsa Brockmann is probably an ecotype of A. kuetzingii (A.S.) Sim.
