Abstract:
Petalomonas sphagnophila has been found for the fi rst time in Russia
from the Shichengskoe raised bog (Vologda Region). Morphology of the species is
studied by means of light microscopy and illustrated by original micrographs. The
data on its taxonomy, ecology and distribution are given. The name P. sphagnophila
was not validly published because no type was indicated in the original publication
(Christen, 1962), so we are validating the name by indicating its holotype. P. polytaphrena
Skuja, nom. inval. is treated as a synonym of P. sphagnophila. Currently, thirty
species of the genus Petalomonas, including P. sphagnophila, are known from Russia
