Abstract
    Two diatoms related to Cocconeis peltoides Hustedt (Bacillariophyceae), from coral reef environments (Mascarenes, Western Indian Ocean), are proposed as a new Cocconeis variety and a new C. species: Cocconeis peltoides var. archaeana Riaux-Gobin et Compère and Cocconeis sigillata Riaux-Gobin et Al-Handal. Cocconeis peltoides and the two new taxa possess an unusual marginal row of small processes on their sternum valve, internally opening as curb-like structures. Several other Cocconeis species, encountered during sampling campaigns in Kerguelen (Southern Ocean, Indian Ocean sector), also share such processes, including Cocconeis hauniensis Witkowski and Cocconeis germainii Riaux-Gobin, Witkowski et Romero. The shared characteristics of these taxa are examined and compared in detail.
