The investigated areas were situated in a zone where the soil pollution gradient was increased and the pH value decreased with the decreasing distance from the pollution source. A high sensitivity to the increase of the concentration of sulphur, phosphorus and fluorine compounds and heavy metals in the soil was recorder in Zercon peltatus. On the other hand, Zercon triangularis proved to be sensitive to a high level of contamination by nitrogen and calcium dust. In soil contaminated by heavy metals, the reaction of species replacement was found within the genus Zercon. Zercon zelawaiensis, sensitive to these emissions, was replaced by Zercon peltatus, while the latter was superseded by Zercon triangularis being a more resistant one
