Description
Shackletoniella antarctica (W.West and G.S.West) Strunecký, Raabová, and Bernardova, 2020(Fig. 6)
Basionym: Phormidium antarcticum W.West and G.S. West, 1911

Filaments straight or wavy, commonly coiled, occasionally twisted, pale blue green or olive green in color, sometimes false branched in old culture. Sheath colorless, thin, firm, sometimes diffluent, widened. Trichomes not or slightly constricted at the cross-walls. Cells longer than wide or occasionally quadratic, 1.4-3.1 μm long, 1.2-1.7 μm wide. Apical cells rounded, distinct granules at the apex. Hormogonia are formed by necridic cells.
Ecology. This species was isolated from microbial mat in an Antarctic lake (Strunecký et al., 2020), and in this study from gravel submerged in freshwater.
Distribution. Prydz Bay, East Antarctica (Strunecký et al., 2020).
Site of collection. Site 7.
Specimen locality: ACKU671, 672.
