Abstract
The paper reports the first detailed study of the diversity of euglenoids recorded from the El Farafra Oasis in the Western Desert of Egypt. Four of the 20 identified species are new records for the Egyptian algal flora: the colorless Peranema inflexum Skuja, and the three pigmented species Euglena adhaerens Matv., Phacus crassus Zakryś & M. Łukomska and Ph. cristatus Zakryś & M. Łukomska. A brief description and original documentation are given for each reported morphospecies.

Polish Botanical Journal is an international journal publishing original papers covering various aspects of vegetation science, plant and fungi biodiversity, biosystematics (including plant anatomy, cytology and embryology), phytogeography, evolution and ecology. All papers are considered by at least two reviewers. Polish Botanical Journal is issued twice per year. The two issues form one annual volume.
