Gomphonema paludosum is a freshwater diatom in the family Gomphonemataceae, characterized by its asymmetrical, wedge-shaped frustule attached to substrates by a mucilaginous stalk. It inhabits shallow, standing waters, marshes, and boggy habitats where it grows on sediment surfaces, plant stems, and submerged debris. As a benthic diatom, it is a useful bioindicator of water chemistry and organic enrichment.
