Abstract

A new araphid diatom, Diatoma kalakulensis sp. nov., was discovered in Lake Kalakul, located in the Pamir Mountains in north-western China. The morphology and ultrastructure of this new species are described on the basis of observations made under light and electron microscopy. Compared to Diatoma tenuis, Diatoma kalakulensis is characterized by longer valves, higher stria density, wider apical ends and the position of its rimoportula.
