  abstract = {{M}icroscopic eukaryotes play a key role in ecosystem functioning, but their diversity remains largely unexplored in most environments. {T}o advance our knowledge of eukaryotic microorganisms and the factors that structure their communities, high-throughput sequencing was used to characterize their diversity and spatial distribution along the pollution gradient of the acid mine drainage at {C}arnoul{\`e}s ({F}rance). {A} total of 16,510 reads were retrieved leading to the identification of 323 {OTU}s after normalization. {P}hylogenetic analysis revealed a quite diverse eukaryotic community characterized by a total of eight high-level lineages including 37 classes. {T}he majority of sequences were clustered in four main groups: {F}ungi, {S}tramenopiles, {A}lveolata and {V}iridiplantae. {T}he {R}eigous sediments formed a succession of distinct ecosystems hosting contrasted eukaryotic communities whose structure appeared to be at least partially correlated with sediment mineralogy. {T}he concentration of arsenic in the sediment was shown to be a significant factor driving the eukaryotic community structure along this continuum.},
