Cyclotella kansasica Hanna 1932
Cyclotella kansasica Hanna (1932: 376) (Figs 10–24) Hanna 1932. University of Kansas Science Bulletin 20: 376, pl. 31, fig. 6. Material examined: — USA. Kansas: Wallace County, Diatom marl from center Sec. 11, T.11S., R 38W, Marshall ranch, North Fork Smoky Hill River, Ogallala Formation. CAS Accession Number 2383 (CAS!). This is the type material studied by Hanna (1932). USA. Kansas: Wallace County, Sec. 12, T.11S., R 38W. CAS Accession Number 604437, Slide numbers 423092, 423093 (CAS!). Description: —Valves are circular, nearly flat, 4.5–16.5 µm in diameter, with several girdle bands and a well-defined border between the central area and the marginal alveolate zone. Central area with one more or less well-developed depression at the center and a variable number of areolae which are arranged irregularly or in short radial rows. Marginal zone extending a little over 1/3 of the valve radius consists of alveolate striae fascicles, 8–12 in 10 µm, separated by hyaline interfascicles. Striae fascicles are of equal length. They contain 3–4 rows of puncta, 40–60 in 10 µm. Alveoli are simple. Length of alveolar openings is almost equal to the length of striae fascicles. Marginal fultoportulae with 3 satellite pores are located on every costa or every second costa separating alveolar openings internally. A single rimoportula occurs at the marginal ends of one of the costae. Spines are present at the junction of the valve face and mantle at every interfascicle, but they may be broken.Published as part of Kociolek, J. P. & Khursevich, G.

Grunowia mannii Kociolek & A. Danz 2022, sp. nov.
Grunowia mannii Kociolek & Danz, sp. nov., Figures 1–15. Description:— Valves narrowly cruciform, with apical axis very narrow and apices narrow, round; the center with rounded margins. Length 5 – 16 µm, breadth 2 – 6 µm. Keel distinct, placed at or near the center of the valve. Fibulae 8 – 10/10 µm. Striae fine, appearing as lines (without visible puncta), parallel, 18 – 23 / 10 µm. Number of specimens measured = 100. In the SEM, the valve exterior has a narrow, raised keel positioned just off-center in larger (Figs 8, 9) specimens but closer to the margin in smaller specimens. Striae are composed of round areolae, 40 – 50 in 10 µm within a stria. Striae are parallel with a density of 20 – 25 in 10 µm. Number of specimens measured = 10. The raphe is positioned in the keel, and has two distinct branches (Figs 8, 11). External distal raphe ends are bent slightly and curved onto the narrow mantle (Fig. 10). External proximal raphe ends terminate close to one another and are straight (Fig. 11). Internally, the raphe is contained in a canal, with portules of varying sizes (Figs 12 – 14). Fibulae are relatively wide for the size of the valves. The proximal raphe ends terminate at a small central nodule that appears similar to helictoglossae (Fig. 15). Type:— USA, Rio Arriba County, New Mexico, Chamita Formation, USGS Diatom Locality 4672, holotype COLO! Slide # 278018 in the J.P. Kociolek Diatom Collection at the University of Colorado, Boulder = Fig. 4; isotype: ANSP! Slide #GC 65441 in the Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University. Etymology:— Named for the diatomist Dr. David Mann, for all of his efforts to uncover and resolve the riddles contained within the Bacillariales. Comments:— This delicate species was well-preserved in the ca. 9 million year-old sediments of the Esmeralda Formation.Published as part of Kociolek, J.

Cyclotella pseudokansasica Khursevich & Kociolek 2013, sp. nov.
<i>Cyclotella pseudokansasica</i> Khursevich & Kociolek, <i>sp. nov.</i> (Figs 56–69) <p> <b>Type:—</b> USA. Idaho: Owyhee County, Chalk Hills Formation, USGS Diatom Locality 5244, (Circled specimen (Fig. 61) on <i>CAS Slide #381069</i>, material <i>CAS Accession Number 602190</i> (CAS!), <b>holotype, designated here</b>).</p> <p> <b>Description:</b> —Valves are circular, nearly flat, 10–23 µm in diameter, with a well-defined border between the central area and the marginal alveolate zone. Central area with a variable number of irregularly arranged areolae. Marginal zone extending from 1/3 to 1/2 of the valve radius consists of alveolate striae fascicles, 8– 12(14) in 10 µm, separated by hyaline interfascicles or costae. Striae fascicles are of equal length. They contain 3–4 rows of puncta, 40–60 in 10 µm. Alveoli are simple. Length of alveolar openings is not equal to the length of striae fascicles. Marginal fultoportulae with 3 satellite pores are located on every second–fourth costa separating alveolar openings internally. A single rimoportula occurs at one of the costae. Spines are present at the junction of the valve face and mantle at every interfascicle or costa.</p> <p> <b>Remarks:</b> — <i>Cyclotella pseudokansasica</i> is similar to <i>C. kansasica</i> in the structure of alveolae, in the location of rimoportula and marginal fultoportulae, but differs by the absence of one more or less welldeveloped depression at the center, as well as by the shorter length of alveolar openings as compared with the length of striae fascicles.</p>Published as part of <i>Kociolek, J.
