Abstract
In the summer 2013, two rare freshwater desmids, Sphaerozosma laeve and Actinotaenium tessellatum (Streptophyta, Conjugatophyceae), were found in the National Park «Valdaiskiy» (Novgorod Region, Russia). The former species was collected in the plankton of the lake «Pestovo» (57°43ʹ46.6ʺ N, 32°57ʹ55.0ʺ E), the latter one was found on the shore of the lake «Gaevskoe» (58°19ʹ41.4ʺ N, 33°18ʹ02.7ʺ E) in sphagnum squeezing. The data on the morphology, localities and distribution of the species are provided.
