Desmids from Peninsula Malaysia

Williamson, David B.

Abstract

Samples collected in 1984 and 1992 from sites in the central and northern parts of the Malaysian Peninsula contain many desmid taxa, some of which have not, or have only rarely been reported or illustrated since first described. The 1984 samples came from the large, shallow Tasek Bera swamp - lake complex in Pahang State, while the 1992 sample was from a roadside lake near Gerik in Perak State in the north of the peninsula.
