Conferva canalicularisLinnaeus, Species Plantarum2: 1164. 1753.
"Habitat in Europae rivulis, tubulis, canalibus molendinariis." RCN: 8378.
Lectotype(Christensen in Brit. Phycol. Bull.3: 466. 1968): [icon] " Conferva rivulorumcapillacea, densissime congestis ramulis" in Dillenius, Hist. Musc.: 21, t. 4, f. 15. 1741. - Voucher: Herb. Dillenius ( OXF).
Note:Van den Hoek ( Revis. Eur. Sp. Cladophora: 223. 1963) designated material in the Dillenius herbarium as the type but as this was not studied by Linnaeus, it cannot be original material. Christensen (in Brit. Phycol. Bull.3: 465-466. 1968) treated Dillenius'description as the type but clearly included the cited plate as part of this. As a consequence, his statement is accepted as a formal typification of the name.
