Abstract
SUMMARYFrustules of the filamentous diatom Navicula confervacea (Kütz.) Grun. are united by the overlapping of marginal teeth located alongside the junction of valve face and mantle. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy show this connecting mechanism to differ from the previously reported inter‐digitating spines or teeth in the genera Melosira, Stephanodisus, and Fragilaria.
