Actinellopsis murphyi gen. et spec. nov.: a new small celled freshwater diatom (Bacillariophyta, Eunotiales) from Zambia
Taylor, Jonathan C.; Balasubramanian, Karthick; Kociolek, J. Patrick; Wetzek, Carlos E.; Cocquyt, Christine (Magnolia Press, 2014)In this paper we describe Actinellopsis murphyi gen. et spec. nov. a small heteropolar and dorsiventral diatom from a seep habitat in Zambia. This novel taxon has the chief distinguishing characteristic, along with its ... -
Diploneis fenestrata sp. nov. (Bacillariophyta), a new aerophilic diatom species from Zambia, Africa
Taylor, Jonathan C.; Balasubramanian, Karthick; Cocquyt, Christine; Lang, Pauline (Magnolia Press, 2014)Diploneis fenestrata, a new aerophilic diatom is described from Lumangwe falls, Zambia. This novel species occurs as an epiphyte on the roots and stems of trees located within the spray zone of the falls. Its morphology ... -
Gomphonema grande sp. nov., a new diatom (Bacillariophyta) from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Tropical Africa
Balasubramanian, Karthick; Taylor, Jonathan C.; Kociolek, Patrick John; Cocquyt, Christine (Magnolia Press, 2016)Gomphonema grande sp. nov. is described from a single sample collected from the Congo River Basin, Tropical Africa. The morphological features of the new species are described and documented through light microscopy and ... -
Navicula nielsfogedii J.C. Taylor & Cocquyt sp. nov., a new diatom (Bacillariophyta) from tropical and sub-tropical Africa
Taylor, Jonathan C.; Cocquyt, Christine; Mayama, Shigeki (Czech Phycological Society, 2016)In this paper we describe Navicula nielsfogedii sp. nov., a commonly occurring diatom through central and southern Africa and distributed from the sub-tropical zones of South Africa to tropical central Africa. We have ... -
New and interesting Eunotia (Bacillariophya) taxa from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, tropical central Africa
Taylor, Jonathan C.; Cocquyt, Christine; Mayama, Shigeki (Royal Botanical Society of Belgium and the Botanic Garden Meise, 2016)Background and aims – Large-celled Eunotia species from tropical central Africa are documented in order to define morphological variation within species and to describe new or poorly documented taxa. Methods – Samples ... -
Reinvestigation of African Surirella taxa (Bacillariophyta) described by B.J. Cholnoky with some remarks on digitization of diatom types
Cocquyt, Christine; Taylor, Jonathan C.; Kusber, Wolf-Henning (Czech Phycological Society, 2017)Cholnoky described several new Surirella taxa from Africa and we have re-investigated this material. As many other of his contemporary authors, especially in the case of description of new African diatoms, Cholnoky did not ... -
Stenopterobia cataractarum sp. nov. (Bacillariophyta), a new benthic diatom from a waterfall in Zambia, Africa
Cocquyt, Christine; Taylor, Jonathan Charles; Wetzel, Carlos (Magnolia Press, 2014)Rivers, streams and associated habitats have been sampled for diatoms in the relatively understudied Congo and Zambezi sister basins. The primary purpose of the sampling effort was to collect samples for biological monitoring ...
