OCCURRENCE OF PRASIOLA FLUVIATILIS (CHLOROPHYTA) ON ELLESMERE ISLAND IN THE CANADIAN ARCTIC 1

ABSTRACT Three occurrences of the macroalga Prasiola fluviatilis (Sommerf.) Aresch. were recorded after the examination of 32 stream segments from the Ellesmere Island National Park Reserve (81°23′ N) in the High Arctic of Canada. The collection sites were small (second‐third order) glacial melt str...

These occurrences confirm the reported circumpolar distribution of the species.
