CommentsSuperfluous name? New name for Cymbella cistula var. gracilis Hustedt 1955 (priority for Cymbella gracilis (Ehrenberg) Kützing 1844). Hufford & Collins 1972 had created a new name for this taxon at species rank (Cymbella cursiformis) and designated a lectotype (specimen on Husted's slide 354/44b at finder 316.9= illustrated in Simonsen 1987, pl. 642, fig. 5-7). Krammer cites in synonymy: Hustedt 1955, fig. 39 only (not 40); Simonsen 642:5-9 (not 643: 1,2). Krammer however adds: "non Cymbella cursiformis Hufford & Collins 1972, p. 184, fig. 4-6, 8, 10"
