Abstract
Diatom is the most common phytoplankton found in the freshwater or marine water. This study attempts to identify the diatoms from water samples collected at six different locations at Kelantan River namely Penambang, Tesco Kota Bharu, Kok Majid, Kampung Laut, Pasir Pekan and Tambatan Diraja. Identification of diatoms was determined based on the frustule shape which achieved through light microscope after acid digestion. A total of 4662 diatoms were identified from six locations of Kelantan River. Most of the diatoms were naviculoid shape which classified under pennate diatoms. The result show the highest number of diatoms was seen at Kok Majid and the lowest number of diatoms was found at Tambatan Diraja. There several factors influence the diatoms a community such as human activities, sampling distances and pollution.
