Nomenclature and systematics of two Cocconeis species (Bacillariophyta) from Lake Baikal: Cocconeis baicalensis and Cocconeis skvortzowii
The study provides nomenclatural history, morphological characteristics and taxonomy of <i>Cocconeisbaicalensis</i> and <i>C.skvortzowii</i> described by B.V. Skvortzov from Lake Baikal. The lecto- and epitypification of the names are made, based on the K.I. Meyer and A.P. Skabichevsky materials, ensuring compliance with current nomenclatural standards. The morphological traits of these species were thoroughly examined using light microscopy (LM) nd scanning electron microscopy (SEM), leading to refined diagnoses and the clarification of previously confused synonymy.
