Abstract
A new species, Trochiscia hamzaoglui Atıcı sp. nova, determined from freshwater habitat, Kesikköprü
Dam Lake on the Kizilirmak River (Kirşehir, Central Anatolia), and the sample was taken
from plankton. This new species was first found in the study of algal samples from the area. Light
microscope indicated a clear relationship with the species in the genus Trochiscia. Some of the
characteristic features of the new taxon include a spine and an irregular cell wall. A comparison
with closely related taxa is given on.
