Additions And Confirmations To The Algal Flora Of Itasca State Park Ii. Diatoms From Chambers Creek, Mark B. Edlund
Additions And Confirmations To The Algal Flora Of Itasca State Park Ii. Diatoms From Chambers Creek, Mark B. Edlund
Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science
A survey of the summer diatom flora of Chambers Creek, Clearwater County, Minnesota, is presented, continuing an inventory of the algal flora from Itasca State Park. Chambers Creek is a short, second-order, hardwater stream with great habitat diversity and a rich algal flora. One hundred and twenty-six diatom taxa representing 45 genera are reported, with many new reports from the park. Recent taxonomic revisions have been incorporated into this study and seven new nomenclatural combinations proposed.

Nomenclatural revisions for four diatom taxa found in Iowa, two of which are presently maintained in the Loras College Freshwater Diatom Culture Collection (FDCC), are necessary because of systematic interpretations of the Division Bacillariophyta. Achnanthidium hauckianum (Grun.) Czarnecki comb. nov. was originally assigned to the genus Achnanthes Bory. Three taxa were previously assigned to the morphologically diverse genus Navicula Bory. These are Cavinula weinzierlii (Schimanski) Czarnecki comb. nov., Craticula cuspidata var. major [(Meist.) Czarnecki comb. nov. and] Craticula halophila var. subcapitata (0str.) Czarnecki comb. nov.
