Figs 1–14 (LM), 15–22 (SEM)</p> <p>Description: Valve outline is elliptic with sub-capitate apices (Figs 2–16, 18–20). Valve dimensions (n=33): length 11–14 μm, breadth 4 μm. Raphe is straight, filiform and barely noticeable under LM (Figs 2–14). A narrow, linear and externally conspicuous sternum represents an axial area (Figs 15, 16). Axial area widens towards the central area. External proximal raphe ends are slightly drop-like and deflected to the same side, but to the opposite direction than the terminal ends (Fig. 16). Terminal raphe fissures are externally hooked and unilaterally deflected, reaching the valve mantle at the apex (Fig. 15). Internally, axial area is represented by the slightly elevated sternum, proximal ends of the raphe are slit-like and deflected to the one direction (Figs 18–20). Distal raphe ends are as simple helictoglossae, situated on a straight line with the raphe, not following the external terminal raphe ends (Fig. 18–20, 22). Central area is bowtie-shaped, bordered by alternating short and long striae (Figs 2–17). Striae are barely visible under LM (Figs 2–14). Striae are uniseriate, strongly radiate in mid-valve, becoming parallel to slightly convergent near the valve apices, 30 in 10 μm (Figs 15–16, 18–20). Striae are composed of areolae with irregularly rounded openings, covered by hymenes inside, 60 areolae in 10 μm (Fig. 18–21). Striae continue uninterrupted with an areola on the valve mantle (Figs 15). Chloroplast is a single H-shaped plastid (Fig. 1).</p> <p>Holotype: slide 75/B385, (holotype here designated see Fig. 4) in collection of Maxim Kulikovskiy (Institute of Plant Physiology Russian Academy of Sciences).

N55°26.254 E110°01.268, 26.07.2012.</p> <p>Etymology: species dedicated to Dr. Natalia Borisovna Balashova, algologist from St-Petersburg State University, mentor of the first author of this manuscript.</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/021233065C059D5357AC738F6E61F956	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
