Eunotia bactriana is a freshwater diatom in the family Eunotiaceae, featuring a distinctly curved frustule with fine transapical striae characteristic of the genus. It grows attached to mosses, sediment, and submerged plant surfaces in oligotrophic, acidic freshwater habitats. Like other Eunotia species, it serves as a bioindicator of pH and nutrient status in aquatic systems.
