Lucas (1919) gave an account of the collections of the Australasian
Antarctic Expedition while Hedley (1916a) published some interesting
field notes emanating from the same source.
It is perhaps ironic that when an algologist and especially one of the
stature of the Swede, Skottsberg, did have the chance to form a large
collection during the course of the Swedish South Polar Expedition, the
major part of it should be lost when the expedition vessel was destroyed in
the pack ice. What survived to be written up by Kylin and Skottsberg
(1919), Hylmo (1919) and Foslie (1907a), and the general account
of algal communities by Skottsberg (194l), indicates the extent of
this loss.
Leaing (1 945) described algae from some Antarctic and Subantarctic
islands. During the wartime British excursions into Graham Land,
known as " Operation Tabarin " from 1943 to 1945 MacKenzie Lamb
collected extensively along the Antarctic Peninsula. Skottsberg (1953)
wrote up a systematic account from these collections, together with the
collections formed by the B.A.N.Z.A.R. Expedition. DBlBpine et al.,
(1966) gave a general account of the algae of the Antarctic Peninsula.
Skottsberg and Neushul (1960) investigated the relationships of
PhyZlogigas and Himantothatlua.
Arnaud (1964) described a new red alga from off Adelie Land.
Neushul (1965) reported on a further investigation of the algae of the
Antarctic Peninsula using diving techniques.
The culmination of this phase of investigation of Antarctic algae,
which was primarily (though not entirely) systematic was the appearance of a catalogue and bibliography of Antarctic and Subantarctic
algae (Papenfuss, 1964b).
A large number of workers, especially the more recent ones, have
been concerned with algal associations and zonation. Skottsberg (1941)
attempted it pioneer general treatment especially for the area of the
Scotia Arc. Neushul (1965) reported on diving observations off the
Antarctic Peninsula. DBl6pine and Hureau (1963) described algal
associations off Adelie Land. Zinova (1958) described algal associations
in the Antarctic observed by the Soviet expeditions. Zaneveld (1966,
1968) contributed two detailed studies on the distribution of algae in
the Ross Sea. Etcheverry (1968) described the sublittoral in some
areas of the Antarctic Peninsula. Price and Redfearn (1968)
described the sublittoral zone at Signy Island, South Orkneys. They
included observations on animals as well and & short account of their
observations is given under general ecology.
