Abstract

The study of materials from Western and Eastern Siberia and the Far East has revealed a significant variability of an important diagnostic feature (the shape of spines) in Aulacoseira alpigena and a wider range of the species. This study and published data make it possible to emend the diagnosis of A. alpigena and reduce it to the synonyms of a morphologically similar species A. helvetica.
