Phycologia 51: 126–134. DOI: 10.2216/10-61.1 Nitzschia epiphytica and N. epiphyticoides are two small diatoms from Central and East Africa described by Muller in 1905 and by Hustedt in 1949, respectively. To reduce the confusion that exists between the two species, the type of N. epiphyticoides and the original material of N. epiphytica were reexamined by light and scanning electron microscopy. Because N. epiphytica was described from several samples by Muller, a lectotype is designated. The variability of these two Nitzschia species was studied using both historic material and more recent material from Lake Tanganyika. A third taxon, Nitzschia pseudepiphytica, which corresponds rather well with the emended species description of N. epiphytica given by Hustedt in 1949, is described. The distribution of these three sma... |
