Fragilariforma bastowiana G. Reid & D.M. Williams 2008, p. 125
CommentsNew name for Fragilaria microcephala Bastow 1960, non Pantocsek 1889. Bastow's name is likely invalid for lacking a designated type, if it is so, Williams & Reid's name is to be considered the valid name of a new taxon.
Published inReid, G. and Williams, D.M. 2008 [ref. 013127]. The diatom slide collection and bibliography of the Reverend Richard Fraser Bastow (c. 1888–1st October 1960). Diatom Research 23(1):117-128.
