| Cosmarium humile (Gay) Nordst. ex De Toni var. humile | Class Zygnematophyceae Family Desmidiaceae |
Description: L. 13.7um, Br. 12.3um, Isth. 4.0um, Th. 7.6um, L:Br. 1.1. Each cell examined had a four crenate apex with the face of the cells having only a single row of intra marginal granules. The central papilla is quite evident in end and side views. This agrees with that in Forster, 1982, Tafel 36, Abb. 13, which makes this taxon a new record for Australia. (Dingley 2001)
