The Genus Hyella Born. et Flah. (Cyanophyceae) in Southern Africa
Six taxa belonging to the genus Hyella are reported from southern Africa. Samples were collected at thirteen locations; twelve in South Africa and one in Mozambique. Four of the taxa were identified to species level. Three of the species were new records for South Africa viz; Hyella balani Born. et Flah., H. immanis Al-Thukair et Golubi? and H. inconstans Al-Thukair et Golubi?. Comparison between taxa and the morphological variability of certain features used in the taxonomy of the genus are presented and discussed.
