Rhoicosphenia michali: a new species of marine diatom (Bacillariophyta) from King George Island, Antarctica
Rhoicosphenia michali sp. nov., described from the shallow sublittoral zone in Antarctica, is the second species in the genus with just one raphe slit on its convex valve. The first species, Rhoicosphenia flexa, was also described from marine coastal habitats in the Southern Hemisphere. Here, the mo...
