Fragilaria neoproducta is a ribbon-forming freshwater diatom with elongated cells linked at their broad faces to form flat, band-like colonies. It inhabits planktonic zones of temperate freshwater lakes with moderate nutrient levels. This photosynthetic diatom contributes to phytoplankton communities, particularly under mixing conditions in spring and autumn.
