Freshwater diatoms on sub-Antarctic Macquarie Island: an ecological survey of 14 lakes
A survey of the diatom (Bacillariophyceae) populations in 14 lakes and ponds on sub-Antarctic Macquarie Island identified 102 species from 34 genera, including species considered endemic to the sub-Antarctic region. Multivariate analysis of the diatom communities divided the lakes into two broad gro...
