| Summary: | Nitzschia cf. gelida Cleve et Grunow (Figure 97) Literature: (Lange-Bertalot and Krammer 1987, p. 20, fig. 7:1–3; Witkowski et al. 2000, p. 383, pl. 198, figs. 4–6). Description: Length 68–75 µm, width 10–12 µm, fibulae 4–5 in 10 µm, striae very fine, could not be resolved under LM. Remarks: The specimens observed were rather similar to the Arctic species N. gelida but differed by their very small size. Nitzschia gelida is much larger with length range 120– 140 µm. Ecology and distribution: Nitzschia gelida is a marine species known from the Arctic (Hsiao 1980). Rare in Potter Cove.
