Vlaamse Milieu Maatschappij (holotype slide BR- 4831 = Fig. 6, isotype slide 436, University of Antwerp, Belgium). Registration: — http: // phycobank. org / 104391 Etymology: — The specific epithet “ supersaprophilum ” refers to the superficial resemblance to G. saprophilum in combination with the much larger valve dimensions.	en	Vijver, Bart Van De, Reichardt, Erwin (2024): Gomphonema supersaprophilum sp. nov., a new diatom species (Gomphonemataceae, Bacillariophyceae) from Flemish rivers (Belgium).

03A0DF62FF8CFFBE2784FADAFDF8BBC0.taxon	biology_ecology	Ecology & associated diatom flora: — Sample APM 23 - 73 was collected from submerged Phalaris arundinacea stems in the Devebeek, a small lowland river in Flanders, the northern part of Belgium, not far from the small town of Ingelmunster. The diatom flora in the river is characterised by high frequencies of Craticula subminuscula (Manguin 1942: 139) C. E. Wetzel & Ector (in Wetzel et al. 2015: 229), Gomphonema parvulum (Kützing 1844: 83) Kützing (1849: 65), Melosira varians C. Agardh (1827: 628), Navicula trivialis Lange-Bertalot (1980: 31), N. veneta Kützing (1844: 95), and several Nitzschia species such as N. amphibia Grunow (1862: 574), N. palea (Kützing 1844: 63) W. Smith (1856: 89) and N. pseudofonticola Hustedt (1942: 209). According to the ecological data in Lange-Bertalot et al. (2017), this diatom community is typical for alkaline, eutrophic, electrolyte-rich, up to polysaprobic waters, indicating a high level of pollution.	en	Vijver, Bart Van De, Reichardt, Erwin (2024): Gomphonema supersaprophilum sp. nov., a new diatom species (Gomphonemataceae, Bacillariophyceae) from Flemish rivers (Belgium).
