ABSTRACT: This work intends to contribute to the knowledge of the centric diatoms, order Triceratiales. Eleven taxa were identified in the Canary Islands coastal waters. Descriptions of the species are complemented with selected references, illustrations, biometric data and information on its regional distribution. Seven species are new records in the Canarian archipelago. Key words: Canary Islands, centric diatoms, Triceratiales, ecology, distribution. RESUMEN: El presente trabajo constituye una contribución al conocimiento de las diatomeas centrales, orden Triceratiales, con la aportación de once taxa identificadas en aguas costeras de las islas Canarias. Cada una de las especies se acompaña de referencias bibliográficas, ilustraciones, datos biométricos e información sobre su distribución en la región. Se señalan siete nuevos registros para el archipiélago Canario. Palabras clave: islas Canarias, diatomeas centrales, Triceratiales, ecología, distribución. INTRODUCCIÓN Esta contribución pretende dar a conocer una de las familias representativas de la flora diatomológica de las aguas costeras de Canarias, mediante el estudio taxonómico de once especies de diatomeas centrales, pertenecientes al orden Triceratiales. La mayoría de estas especies son ticoplanctónicas, pueden flotar libremente o formar parte del bentos adheridas a un substrato, vivir aisladas o bien formar cadenas de dos o más individuos.

Abstract: This is a historical account of the biodiversity of phytoplankton in Guanabara Bay, Brazil. It is based on 57 publications that refer to sampling carried out between 1913 and 2004. The publications included are those with direct microscopic identification. Although 80% of the studies focus on ecological issues that tend to mention only the most abundant species, 24 publications provide comprehensive check-lists at the species level, especially of taxa ≥ 20 µm.
