Summary:Arcanodiscus saundersianus Goeyers & Van de Vijver sp. nov. http://phycobank.org/ 102320 Figs 97–115, 132–138 Etymology The species is named in honour of our colleague Dr Krystyna Saunders (Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation, Kirrawee, Australia) to acknowledge her for her ecological and paleoecological diatom research on the sub-Antarctic islands in the Pacific Ocean. Material examined Holotype CAMPBELL ISLAND • sub-Antarctic region; sample BAS272; 26 Dec. 1969; D. Vitt leg.; BR-4581. Isotype CAMPBELL ISLAND • same collection data as for holotype; slide at University of Antwerp, Belgium; PLP-372. Description Light microscopy (Figs 97–115) Frustules broadly discoid, almost square to rectangular with broadly rounded edges and convex valve faces. Frustules often found attached to each other. Chains composed of more than 2 cells however never observed. Multiple discoid chloroplasts present. Girdle bands not discernible in LM. Valves rather strongly silicified, rounded with a thick mantle ... : Published as part of Goeyers, Charlotte & Vijver, Bart Van De, 2020, Revision of the non-marine centric diatom flora (Bacillariophyta) of the sub-Antarctic Campbell Island (southern Pacific Ocean) with the descriptions of five new species, pp. 1-30 in European Journal of Taxonomy 694 on pages 18-20, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2020.694, http://zenodo.org/record/3973347 ...
