Gyrosigma is a genus of diatoms belonging to the family Pleurosigmataceae.[1]
The genus has a cosmopolitan distribution.[1]
Like other diatoms, Gyrosigma has a siliceous cell wall called a frustule. The frustule is composed of two sections called valves, with one valve fitting inside the other valve similar to the two halves of a Petri dish.[2] Gyrosigma has valves with a central slit called a raphe, a structure that allows movement of these diatoms.[3]
The valves of Gyrosigma are sigmoid in outline, as well as the raphe. Striations could be parallel or perpendicular to the raphe. This contrasts to a similar genus Pleurosigma, which has striations that lie diagonally to the raphe.[3]
