Abstract
The diatoms of the Shatt al-Arab River were studied from April 1982 to June 1983 from different habitats (planktonic, epiphytic, epilithic and epipelic). A total of 116 taxa have been recorded, of which 22 taxa were new records for Iraq. Dimensions, illustrations and/or photographs of diatoms from the examined material were given in 14 plates.
