Abstract
In a study of subaerial Cyanophyceae growing on the Nouragues inselber g, in French Guiana, 28 taxa are described with a new species, Schizot hrix luteola and 4 new varieties. The genera Gloeocapsa, Gloeothece, S tigonema, Scytonema, Hapalosiphon and Schizothrix are predominant. 80% of the filamentous forms are heterocysteous. Two uncommon species, Do liocatella formosa and Symphyonema sinense are recorded for the first time in French Guiana.
