In June 1991 a peculiar Uroglena species was found in two small ponds, the Ugglehult Ponds, situated close to Aneboda, central Småland, Sweden. The colonies contained well‐developed spiny stomatocysts. An EM investigation verified that this Uroglena was a new species which has here been given the name Uroglena dendracantha because of the conspicous tree‐like spines.
