Abstract
In the phytoplankton of the Svisloch River (Belarus Republic) 113 diatom taxa of species and infraspecific rank new for this river have been revealed. Among them 63 taxa are first cited for Belarus flora. Genera Nupela Vyverman et Compere et Prestauroneis Bruder et Medlin were not recorded in Belarus before. In the paper 7 new taxonomical combinations are suggested. All revealed taxa are known to prefer mesotrophic and eutrophic alkaline water bodies.
