The Diatom Flora of a Steam Vent of Kilauea Crater, Island of Hawaii

Freshwater and subaerial diatom floras have not been extensively examined in the Hawaiian Islands. This paper reports the study of a subaerial diatom flora in a small steam vent near Kilauea Crater, Island of Hawaii. A total of 35 taxa was identified , 3 of which are new records for the state. The Kilauea vent flora is unusual in floral composition and differs markedly from other Hawaiian subaerial diatom floras we have studied, particularly in the dominance of Anomoeoneis serians var. brachysira and Frustulia rhomboides

Effects of Burning on the Algal Communities of a High Desert Soil near Wallsburg, Utah

A recently burned area near Wallsburg, Wasatch County, Utah, was sampled to determine if differences existed between the soil algal flora of a burned area and that of an adjacent ecologically similar unburned area. Soil samples were cultured and analyzed to determine presence and relative frequency of living algae. The frequency of visible algal patches present after eight days of culturing was much higher in the unburned soil samples than in the burned samples. Percent relative frequencies and absolute densities of diatoms were also determined. Diatom floras of the two areas were very similar. However, the absolute densities of diatoms were significantly greater in the unburned samples. The major effect of the burn was to decrease algal biomass, although the flora remained remarkably similar.This material was digitized as part of a cooperative project between the Society for Range Management and the University of Arizona Libraries.The Journal of Range Management archives are made available by the Society for Range Management and the University of Arizona Libraries.
