Melosira cf. adeliae Manguin ( Figure 11 View Figures 2–11 )

Literature: ( Manguin 1960, p. 236, pl. 1, figs. 11–13; Scott and Thomas 2005, p. 66, figs. 2.31a–f).

Description: Diameter 28–32 µm.

Remarks: Chains of this species were not observed, and specimens encountered were probably deposited on the sediment from its natural epiphytic habitat.

Ecology and distribution: Widely distributed in and around Antarctica, mostly as an epiphyte ( Majewska and De Stefano 2015). Rare in Potter Cove.
