Scale bar -10 µm
This diatom is a symmetrical biraphid. The ends of the diatom are sub-capitate. The morphology is rhombic lanceolate. The striae are curved radiate toward the center of the diatom. Within the sample the width has a wide range but the length and the number of striae per 10 µm is consistent. The sample was taken with a plankton tow at Millers Bay at West Lake Okoboji.
