Taxonomic note
Binomial also proposed by Å. Berg 1939:440, as Eunotia tridentula (Ehr. emend.) Å. Berg, with Basionym Eunotia tridentula var. tridentula Ehrenberg. (See Cleve-Euler 1953:102 and CAS Diatom Collection). Cleve-Euler 1953:102,103 proposed several varieties of that taxon:
'beta' protracta Å.Berg ex Cleve-Euler (Fig. 431d)
'gamma' densa Å.Berg ex Cleve-Euler.
'delta' spissa Å.Berg ex Cleve-Euler.
'epsilon' bidentata Å.Berg ex Cleve-Euler (Fig. 431e)
'zeta' vara Å.Berg ex Cleve-Euler (Fig. 431f)
'theta' bidens (Husted) Cleve-Euler (fig. 431g,h), with Basionym Eunotia exigua var. bidens Hust. Bac. Fig. 224. - (27 January 2022) - Salvador Valenzuela Miranda
