Park, Joon Sang, Lobban, Christopher S. & Lee, Kyun-Woo, 2018, Diatoms associated with seaweeds from Moen Island in Chuuk Lagoon, Micronesia, Phytotaxa 351 (2), pp. 101-140 : 134

148. Campylodiscus scalaris (Giffen) Lobban & J.S. Park , comb. nov. Fig. 176

References: Giffen (1971), p. 11, fig. 54; Lobban et al. (2012), p. 308, pl. 68, figs 4–6, pl. 69, figs 1 and 2 (both as Surirella scalaris ).

Samples: Moen1_ Halimeda

Dimensions: 14.3 μm long, 11.5 μm wide.

Comments: Ruck et al. (2016), in transferring S. fastuosa to Campylodicsus, implied that S. scalaris should be transferred as well, but did not make the formal change. We propose it below.
