| Nitzschia fusidium H.L. Smith 1876-1888, Diat. Spec. Typ. No. 343 | |||
| Status | Valid | ||
| Comments | H.L. Smith notes "Nitzschia fusidium, H.L.S. = N. minuta Bleisch" and cites "Upsala, Sweden, K.B. xxx. 33?" (referring with question to Synedra fusidium Kützing 1844, ref. 000595). Probably better treated as a new name for Nitzschia minuta Bleisch in Rabenhorst 1860, rather than a new combination of Synedra fusidium Kützing 1844. | ||
