Juárez, Ángela Beatriz; Wenzel, María Teresa

Abstract

We report the first record for South America of the cyanophycean species Lemmermanniella flexa Hinoák, from a eutrophic urban water body, Planetario Pond, located in Buenos Aires City, Argentina. The genus Lemmermanniella Geitler is recorded for the first time in this country and the species L. flexa is recorded for the first time after its description by Hinoák. Morphological and ecological observations are also informed.
