Abstract: On the basis of the analytical methodology available at present the state of the art for the determination of total mercury and of various organometallic compounds of mercury in air, precipitation, limnic systems, soils, plants and biota is reviewed. This is followed by the presentation and discussion of examples for the data obtainedhitherto for trace and ultratrace levels of total mercury and mainly methyl mercury in terrestrial and limnic environments as well as in biota. The data discussed stem predominantly from the past decade in which, due to significant methodological progress, many new aspects were elucidated. They include- themost important results in this area achieved by the Research Centre (KFA) Juelich within the project "Origin and Fate of Methyl Mercury (contracts EV4V-0138-D and STEP-CT90-0057) supported by the Commision of the European Communities, Brussels.
