ETYMOLOGY. — The epithet ‘umiujaqensis’ is named for the Inuit village nearest to the lake where the species was observed. ECOLOGY AND DISTRIBUTION. — Adlafia umiujaqensis sp. nov. was found in three lakes of this study, CEN-O, 22-Z and 22-AA. While it represented 7.1% of the diatom assemblage in lake 22-AA, it reached only 1.9% and 0.6% relative abundance, respectively, in lakes 22-Z and CEN-O. The low number of occurrences obscured any potential autecological patterns of this species (Appendices 1; 2; 3). REGISTRATION. — http://phycobank.org/103919.
