Data on solar hydrogen filaments obtained at the Abastumani Astrophysical Observatory during solar activity cycles 19-22 are used to study the characteristic periods of the solar differential rotation. In addition to the known 11-year period of solar activity, a quasi-biennial periodicity was revealed for the rotation rates of hydrogen filaments and a quasi-five-year periodicity was also found for the number of hydrogen filaments.
