硅藻种类Synedra berolinensis已被置于Synedra属，Fragilaria, Staurosira， Staurosirella以及它自己的单型属Belanostrum中。它最近被送回了Staurosirella。这就提出了一个相关的问题：为什么柏林山蛛如此难以分类？一个答案可能是证据（数据）的不恰当。另一个可能是对生物进行分类的方法，特别是对有问题的群体使用单型分类群。我将讨论这两个方面，更侧重于后者：我们如何分类？
The diatom species Synedra berolinensis has been placed in the genus Synedra , Fragilaria , Staurosira , Staurosirella as well as its own monotypic genus, Belanostrum . It is recently returned to Staurosirella . This prompts a pertinent question: Why is Synedra berolinensis so hard to classify? One answer may be the inappropriateness of the evidence (data). Another may be the approach to classifying the organism, especially the use of monotypic taxa for problematic groups. I will address both aspects, concentrating more on the latter: How do we classify?
