Checklist of marine diatoms from the Turkish coastal waters with updated nomenclature

Marine diatom research in the coastal waters of Turkey started nearly two centuries ago. In the lastdecades, increasing numbers of contributions extended the knowledge of the marine phytoplankton. While several studies dedicated to planktonic forms and the checklists published concerningon the phytoplankton, relatively low numbers of benthic diatom studies were performed. Therefore, this is the first detailed list of the marine diatoms including both planktonic and benthic formsin Turkish coasts. This paper brings up the checklist of the past research referring to the authors inthe last two centuries within the scope of the latest nomenclature. A total of 767 taxa (species,varieties and forms) belonging to 183 genera were listed. This study focussed into the study areasaccording to the reviewed literature and showed that many areas are yet to be investigated.
