The content of A. lwoffi and A. calcoaceticus in water and sewage has been determined. A considerable prevalence of A. lwoffi in both objects has been revealed. The most definite results have been obtained with the use of selective media: ethanol-ammonium medium and Baumann's modified nitrate-acetate medium. The seasonal dynamics of both species in water has been determined, the peak being observed in June and the decrease (and with A. calcoaceticus even disappearance), in August.
