in Almeida et al., Fottea, 17: 277-292, figs. 37-50. 2017.
( Figs. 19-23 View Figure 2-40 )
Valves linear to lanceolate, constricted in the middle. Subcapitate to rostrate ends.Axial and central area absent. Striae uniseriate, parallel, composed by circular areolae, extending onto the mantle. Length: 22.1-54.7 μm; width: 4.2-6.3 μm; striae <20 in 10 μm. Species erroneously identified as Fragilariforma javanica Hustedt in taxonomic and ecological Brazilian studies. The morphological differences between these two species are the shape and width of apices and kind of spines ( Almeida et al. 2017).
