(cyanobacteria); characium ensiforme hermann, c. ornithocephalum a. braun and desmodesmus brasiliensis (bohlin) e. hegewald (chlorophyceae); cosmarium abbreviatum racib., c. bireme nordst., c. pseudopyramidatum lundell, c. subadoxum gr£¿nblad, c. trilobulatum reinsch, gonatozygon pilosum wolle and staurastrum forficulatum lundell (zygnemaphyceae); trachelomonas hispida (perty) stein emend. deflandre (euglenophyceae); cryptomonas tenuis pascher (cryptophyceae) and characiopsis sphagnicola pascher (xanthophyceae). %K connected pond %K floodplain %K periphyton %K taxonomy. %U http://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?script=sci_abstract&pid=S0100-84042011000300006&lng=en&nrm=iso&tlng=en
