Abstract:
Three planktic species of Staurastrum are newly described from the Netherlands: S. bloklandiae spec. nov., S. hollandicum spec. nov. and S. micronoides spec. nov. So far, they have only been recorded from eutrophic water bodies. Their taxonomic affinities, habitat characteristics and distribution patterns are delt with. The allied taxon S. iversenii Nyygard var. americanum Scott et Gronblad is renamed as S. pseudolevanderi nom. nov. et stat. nov. The significance of microspecies in desmid taxonomy is discussed.
