Abstract: This work is dedicated to the study of electromagnetic irradiation influence on European grass frog tadpoles. Peculiarities of its impact on their linear features and mortality were investigated. Growth and mortality intensification were detected according to the increasing of number of irradiation sessions. The presence of morphological abnormalities in post-metamorphic individuals was also assessed. The experiment showed that electromagnetic irradiation did not cause the mass occurrence of morphological anomalies. The preliminary results of the work show that this field of experiment is promising and further investigations should be conducted. The results of the experiment can be used in herpetoculture in creating the stable breeding stock of amphibians, development of nature conservation management-plans for objects of the nature reserve fund as well as in studying the impact of an electromagnetic field on living organisms in general.
