diatoms in Limbungan Man Made Lake. It was conducted from April 2012 to May 2012
with two sampling times. Identification of diatom’s species refers to the Masaharu and
Yunfang. Abundance was calculated by the method American Public Health Association

Form of diatoms commonly in research is quadrangle shape. The result of diatom test
in Limbungan Man Made Lake show 7 species of diatoms: Asterionella sp, Aulacoseira
sp, Melosira sp, Navicula sp, Thalassiosira sp, Fragillaria sp and Diatoma sp. Total
diatom’s abundance was 5193,33 cell/L. The highest abundance of diatom is Aulacoseira
