During a number of years juveniles and larvae of Atherina boyeri Risso, 1810 and Knipowitschia caucasica (Berg, 1916) were caught in the hypersaline waters of Sivash at salinity up to 70-75%. Once the larvae of Atherina hepsetus Linnaeus, 1758 at a salinity of 54% and A. boyeri at a salinity of 90% were caught. New data on the expansion of the salinity range of the survival of A. boyeri are presented.
