Excerpt from The Formation of Travertine and Siliceous Sinter by the Vegetation of Hot Springs
In New Zealand the presence of algae in the hot springs'on the south shore of Lake Taupo was first noted by Hochstetter, who says the dark emerald-green growth covered the ground where the warm water flowed. The specimens collected by him are described in the Botany Of the Novara Expedition.
