Abstract

Morphological variation of 13 representatives belonging to 6 genera of chlorococcal algae (Chlorophyceae), namely Keratococcus, Monoraphidium, Crucigeniopsis, Botryococcus, Neodesmus and Scenedesmus, were studied on the material from the territory of China. Majority of them have not been probably recorded till now from this country. A new species, Scenedesmus kantonensis Hindák, and a new combination, S. subspicatus Chodat var. crassicaulatus (Hortob.) Hindák, are proposed.
