Background. The Angulo River has been subject to environmental deterioration as a result of agriculture practices and industrial discharges to its tributary. Goal. Determine the species of diatoms that indicate contamination and their distribution in the Angulo river, a tributary of the Lerma river. Methods. Twelve sites including 2 springs were selected during the low-water and post-rain periods of 2005. The samples were obtained by scraping the rocks to separate the attached diatoms. These were cleaned by oxidizing the sample with hydrochloric acid and hydrogen peroxide; permanent preparations were made with Naphrax® resin, for review with light microscopy. Results. 50 taxa belonging to 20 genera were identified, of which 5 species belong...
