Time permitting, I take an interest in botany, particularly in freshwater diatoms. New species described are listed below. There are many more awaiting description, particularly in the genera Eunotia, Gomphonema, and Stauroneis which I sampled in Brazil. A revision of the genus Diploneis in Europe (joint work with H. Lange-Bertalot) is in preparation.
