Abstract

The new monoraphid diatom species C. nanoburyatica sp. nov. is described from Lake Baikal. This taxon differs from closely related taxa C. neodiminuta Krammer, C. neothumensis Krammer, and C. pseudothumensis Reichard by less developed striae, a very large axial area, and broader rounded ends.
