Notes:
Common in larger acid circumneutral lakes with low specific conductance values (<100µS/cm). Less common in moss and soil samples. Mean F-value 3,4±1,5.Kerguelen (Reinsch 1879, Bourrelly & Manguin 1954, Larson 1974, Le Cohu & Maillard 1986, Van de Vijver et al. 2001), South Georgia (Van de Vijver & Beyens 1996, 1997a), Macquarie Island (McBride et al. 1999), South Orkney Islands (Jones et al. 1993, Jones & Juggings 1995).
