Amphora sp. 1 (Figures 87, 88) Description: Length 26–34 µm, width 4.5–6 µm, striae very fine and difficult to resolve in LM. Remarks: This species is very similar to the images given by Simonsen (1992, page 73, plate 69, figures 12, 13) for Amphora lunula var. parvula Heiden, as published in Heiden and Kolbe (1928), of material collected from Antarctica. Simonsen, however, doubted the identification of this taxon which may belong to a different species. Ecology and distribution: Marine species. Rare in Potter Cove.
