Abstract
Eight desmid taxa are presented herein, of which five are new records for Australia. One new species is proposed, 'Euastrum planctonicum' A.Kenins, and the zygospore of a planktic 'Staurastrum' Meyen ex Ralfs that defies certain identification is described. The taxa reported suggest south-east Queensland has elements of an Indo-Malaysian/North Australian desmid flora.
