Examples are rare in the case of characteristic two, and it is the purpose of this paper to contribute a fifth infinite family. The approach taken leads to a unified construction of this new family with three of the previously known infinite families, namely those satisfying a symmetry hypothesis concerning cyclic subgroups of PGL(2, q). The calculation of the automorphisms of the associated generalized quadrangles is sufficient to show that these generalized quadrangles and the associated flocks and translation planes do not belong to any previously known family.en© de Gruyter 2003Journal article002003073010.1515/advg.2003.0020001820453000012-s2.0-1764440455058628
