Abstract

We report the finding the two species of Mantoniella from the Weddell Sea and Prydz Bay, Antarctica. As well as M. squamata, a composition species, we describe M. antarctica sp. nov., the second species in this genus. M. antarica is covered with two distinctive types of discoid scales. The flagella bear only smaller of the scale types whereas the cell body has two types, the larger overlying the smaller.
