Abstract:
The taxonomy and local distribution within The Netherlands of a group of closely related species belonging to the Staurastrum rnanfeldtii cluster have been investigated. S. monfeldtii is a benthic species, distributed in mesotrophic, circum neutral water bodies. S. planctonicum and S. pique are common plankters in eutrophic. Alkaline lakes. S. productum stat. nov., and S. bulhosum stat. nov., confined to the benthos of acid, oligo-mesotrophic pools, occurred scarcely in the beginning of this century but are without any record after the twenties. S. bicorne and S. simplicius stat. nov.. only very incidentally encountered, might be mere biradiate forms of S. productum and S. planctonicum respectively.
