Staurastrum mississippiense G.J.P.Ramos & C.W.N.Moura , nom. nov. et stat. nov.
Replaced name: Staurastrum pseudosebaldi var. compactum A.M.Scott & Grönblad, Acta Societatis Scientarum Fennicae, Nova Series B, 2(8): 44, pl. XXV: figs 1, 2. 1957.
Note: Staurastrum mississippiense is a rare species known only from a pond on old road, 6 miles east of Pearlington, Mississippi ( Scott & Grönblad 1957: 8, 44) and from Bahia, north-eastern Brazil ( Ramos et al. 2018). As the epithet “ compactum ” is already occupied at the species level by Staurastrum compactum Whelden ( Whelden 1947: 99, pl. VI: fig. 7), we chose “ mississippiense ” to replace it based on the type locality.
