During our investigations on the freshwater diatoms from Qinghai Province, China, four sympatric Surirella taxa belonging to the group Pinnatae were analysed. Based on morphological observations derived from light and scanning electron microscopy, three of these four taxa were identified as: S. minuta, S. lacrimula, and S. brebissonii var. kuetzingii. The fourth taxon is described as Surirella liubingii sp. nov., a new species with a unique combination of characteristics. These include the distribution pattern of its costa-stria bundles (CSBs) alternating with its over-fibula costae (OFCs), which is formed by the distinctly elevated CSBs on the valve face, mostly composed of three costae, and OFCs with a remarkedly lower position. Other characteristics include the presence of robust fibulae extending to the valve midline, the presence of only one portula between two adjacent fibulae, and a “pseudoseptum” extending internally from the valve margin. From the observations on these four Surirella taxa, we described and discussed two types of fibula (one in which the fibula nearly reaches the valve midline and one with short fibula) and two types of portula morphology (one with only one portula between two adjacent fibulae and the other with 2–4 portulae between two adjacent fibulae).

Surirella brebissonii var. kuetzingii Krammer & Lange-Bertalot 1987 (LM: Figs 78–89, SEM: Figs 90–101, 106) Observations:— LM: Valve outline ovate to elliptical with broadly rounded headpole and narrowly rounded footpole. Valve dimensions (n = 25): 14–25 μm long, 6.9–8.8 μm wide (measured at widest part of the valve), length/width ratio 1.4–1.6. Valve composed of two portions: central portion and outside portion (indicated in Fig. 83). Costa-stria bundles (CSBs) visible, alternated with over-fibula costae (OFCs) from pole to pole. CSBs reaching valve margins. CSBs parallel at valve middle part, radiate approaching apices. Fibulae well-developed, spanning c. 1/4 of valve width, not extending to midline, 6–8 in 10 μm. SEM: Each CSB often composed of three costae and four striae (Figs 90–92). Striae multiseriate, composed of 3–5 rows of areolae, 23–25 in 10 μm (measured from SEM images, n = 4). Outside openings of areolae slit-like (Figs 92–95). Raphe canal located directly on mantle. Distal raphe endings simple and interrupting at both apices (Figs 93, 94, two arrows respectively). Internally, valve composed of two portions: central portion and outside portion (indicated in Fig. 97). Wall of raphe canal growing slightly into cell cavity leaving the portulae visible. Fibulae short, spanning c. 1/4 of valve width, not extending to valve midline (Figs 96–98). Raphe continuous at headpole (Fig. 99, wavy arrow), but interrupted at footpole (Fig. 100, two arrows). Three portulae produced between two adjacent fibulae (Figs 101, 106, three arrows). The areas between the fibulae form marginal trough-like depressions (Fig. 106). Ecology and distribution:— Epilithic in freshwater river. Surirella brebissonii var. kuetzingi was found in the same sampling site with S. liubingii, for the environmental parameters, see above. It is commonly found in Europe with reports from Germany, France and Poland (Krammer & Lange-Bertalot 1987, Bey & Ector 2013, Szczepocka et al. 2018).
