Notes:
Although published as part of an earlier work ("Identifying Marine Diatoms and Dinoflagellates," 1996), the 1997 compilation was used here. The editor's forword notes that "All nomenclatural novelties were validated in the original publications"
According to California Academy Catalogue of Diatom Names, Navicula distans (W. Smith) Brebisson 1854 and N. distans (W. Smith) Schmidt 1861 are nomenclatural synonyms. Witkowski et al. 2000 reported the taxon as Navicula distans (W. Smith) Schmidt
