The aquatic microcosms in plant axils of bromeliads are unique and favorable habitat for diverse kinds of new and rare species of microalgae. This study presents the first taxonomic survey in the Philippines to focus on the algal community existing in phytotelmata of Neoregelia spp. L.B. Smith (Bromeliaceae) from florist wholesalers in Laguna. The survey provided important taxonomic records and information on the species composition of phytotelm microalgae of bromeliad tanks found in the Philippines.
