Abstract :

There is a few information about microflora of Tehran Province in spite of its large surface. In this research, soils and waters of this province were studied and four new species of microalgae belongs to Nostocaceae, Oscillatoriaceae from cyanobacteria and also Chlorellaceae from chlorophyta have been reported for the first time. Collections were done from this province in summer and autumn of 2008. Samples were from both water and soil. Soil samples were cultured by use of Allen & Arnon, BG110, BBM and N8. Isolation was done by agar plate method. Species were identified by morphological keys. In conclusion 4 species Microcheate tenera, Oscillatoria foreaui, Nostoc entophytum, Chlorella ellipsoida belonged to blue green and green algae were isolated and identified from Tehran Province for first time.
