0389D92DD83AFF932BD7FAD7FDDAA9D8.taxon	biology_ecology	Ecology and associated diatom taxa: — Olifantiella elisabethiana was recorded in several samples from the Kanaaldok in the Antwerp harbor. The samples were characterized by a fairly high Cl- level (2.6 g / l), high conductivity levels (627 mS / m), an almost circumneutral pH (7.8) and moderate nutrient values (TN 5.0 g / l, TP 0.17 g / l) (all values from Van Dam et al. 2008). The flora in the samples was dominated by brackish and marine species such as Nitzschia filiformis var. conferta (Richter 1879: 65) Lange-Bertalot in Lange-Bertalot & Krammer (1987: 18), Psammothidium punctulatum (Simonsen 1959: 75) Bukhtiyarova & Round (1996: 14), Tabularia fasciculata (Agardh 1812: 35) Williams & Round (1986: 326) and Berkeleya spp. Unfortunately, no raw material is kept making observation of the lifeform of the new species not possible.	en	Vijver, Bart Van De, Mertens, Adrienne, Dam, Herman Van (2016): Olifantiella elisabethiana, a new raphid diatom species (Bacillariophyta) observed in the Port of Antwerp (Belgium).
