Review, diatom, taxa, Iraqi waterAbstract
This review aimed to survey diatom composition in Iraqi waters. The facts were taken from surveys of phytoplankton in Iraq, covering freshwater and saline waters in diverse cities. A total of 454 taxa of the diatom group belonging to Bacillophycaea class have been verified in the review. These taxa varied among 107 genera. The genus Nitzschia had a higher number of taxa followed via Navicula, Cymbella, Fragilaria, and Gomphonema, respectively. This study proposes to present a checklist of diatom composition in Iraq, built on the compilation of preceding investigations
