Nitella mucronata is designated as "extremly rare species" of Charophyta in the Czech Republic in the recent publication of Husák (2001), where only one locality in South Moravia is cited. Hovewer, according to literary sources and personal experience there exist more of localities of this species in the Czech Republic. Recently (in summer 2007) has been found N. mucronata in peat bog Velká Ohrazenice near a village Doňov near Veselí nad Lužnicí (south Bohemia). It is possible to suppose that this species occurs at other localities in the Czech Republic. All old and recent data about the distribution of this species, detailed description and ecological characters are summarized in our article.
