Short summary
Diatoms are dust-sized algae commonly found in the upper 100 m of the Southern Ocean. In this paper, we describe three new species found in sediments west of the Ross Sea, East Antarctica, aged about 3--2 Ma: Fragilariopsis clava, Fragilariopsis armandae, and Rouxia raggattensis. These species may be useful for determining the age of sediments and past environmental conditions at other locations around the Southern Ocean.
