Tabellaria is a genus of freshwater diatoms, cuboid in shape with frustules (siliceous cell walls) attached at the corners so the colonies assume a zigzag shape. The first illustrations of diatoms are found in an article from 1703 in Transactions of the Royal Society showing unmistakable drawings of Tabellaria . [164]
25 de mar. de 2019 · Several groups, notably the eunotioids and cymbelloids, are almost exclusively freshwater, and the thalassiosiroids have a majority of freshwater genera, while all the other main groups of diatoms have a significantly larger representation (at the level of genus) in brackish or marine waters.

12 de ago. de 2019 · Freshwater diatoms are used as one of the most popular model taxa in such macroecological studies, but the most exciting patterns in the spatial ecology of diatoms have not been reviewed. Here, we identify 15 important questions about freshwater diatom ecology, review the major findings, and suggest novel research avenues.

Research includes recent, Holocene and Pleistocene diatoms from the Arctic, southern Canada, Europe and Asia to understand current and future impacts on our environment.
A listing of the accepted freshwater diatom genera worldwide is presented, indicating the distribution of the genera by continent. Out of a total of 249 genera, 63 (25%) of those genera are endemic to a single continent.
12 de abr. de 2015 · Unicellular siliceous algae, diatoms, are one commonly used organismal group in freshwater bioassessment. Diatoms are used widely across the world, because different species typically have distinct habitat preferences, and they react relatively quickly to changes in their environment (Dixit et al. 1992 ; Round et al. 2007 ).
