Abstract

Pseudostriatella oceanica gen et. sp. nov. is a marine benthic diatom that resembles Striatella unipunctata in gross morphology, attachment to the substratum by a mucilaginous stalk, and possession of septate girdle bands. In LM, P. oceanica can be distinguished from S. unipunctata by plastid shape, absence of truncation of the corners of the frustule, indiscernible striation, and absence of polar rimoportulae. With SEM, P. oceanica can be distinguished by a prominent but unthickened longitudinal hyaline area, pegged areolae, multiple marginal rimoportulae, and perforated septum. The hyaline area differs from the sterna of most pennate diatoms in being porous towards its expanded ends; in this respect, it resembles the elongate annuli of some centric diatoms, e.g. Attheya and Odontella. 18S rDNA phylogeny places P. oceanica among the pennate diatoms and supports a close relationship between P. oceanica and S. unipunctata, but the genetic distance between them, coupled with the morphological differences, justifies separation at genus level. However, the affinity of the P. oceanica  S. unipunctata clade remains unresolved both in molecular and morphological study. Both genera are only distantly related to Hyalosira and Grammatophora, despite similarities in frustule structure and growth habit, arguing against their inclusion in the same family. The auxospore is covered with series of transverse and longitudinal bands but the structure and arrangement of these bands appear to be more similar to the properizonia of some centric diatoms than to the classic type of perizonium seen in other pennate diatoms; a few scales are also present. The differences between properizonia and perizonia are discussed.
