Nitzschia bergii is a freshwater diatom in the family Bacillariaceae, distinguished by its elongated, narrow valve with a distinctive marginal keel. It is found in benthic communities of rivers and lakes, often associated with slightly enriched conditions.

Nitzschia suchlandti is a pennate diatom in the family Bacillariaceae inhabiting freshwater environments, characterized by its narrow, elongate frustule with a sigmoid or sinuous raphe canal. Like other members of the large genus Nitzschia, it contributes to benthic and planktonic algal communities and serves as a bioindicator of water chemistry and organic pollution status.
