For each literature record the diatom genera mentioned are presented as well as all diatom taxa described from the Congo as new. In total, 106 new taxa were documented, of which <i>Nitzschia</i> with 40 taxa is far the most important genus followed by <i>Navicula</i> s.l. and <i>Pinnularia</i> and with 15 and 13 taxa respectively. Particular attention was paid to the local research of students found in unpublished theses at bachelor, licentiate, master and PhD level. Diatom records in these works are almost all restricted to genus level, although in the last decade an attempt to delimit species can be observed. This accompanies the renewed taxonomic interest in the Congo basin during the last decade. Renewed taxonomic interest can also be seen in the genera: the first period being situated during the lumping period, while more recent works follow the current taxonomic classification, for example <i>Navicula</i> s.l. versus <i>Navicula, Cavinula, Craticula, Diadesmis, Geissleria, Humidophila, Luticola, etc.</i>","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Freshwater diatoms in the Democratic Republic of the Congo: a historical overview of the research and publications","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2025-07-02 08:33:14.980000","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+00:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":"Algae, Bacillariophyta, Congo basin, tropical Africa, Zaire","OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2019,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2020-01-02","DateCreate":"2020-01-02","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000504930100001","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":1,"DOI":"10.3897/phytokeys.136.47386"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":319991,"PubliDate":2019,"Pagination":"107-125","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"136","Issue":null,"BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":215655,"SerRR":"PhytoKeys.
