✦ Synopsis

Abstract

The occurrence of iron bacteria in mineral waters has been under study. It could be shown that Siderocapsa coronata REDINGER 1931 and S. treubii MOLISCH 1909 are synonymous, as well as S. eusphaera SKUJA 1948 and S. major MOLISCH 1909, and S. botryoides BEGER 1949 and S. monoica 1922. Two new species, S. hexagonata and S. quadrata, have been described. A simplified key for determining the species of the genus Siderocapsa is presented.
