| Notes |
Distribution: Probably cosmopolitan. It has been recorded from both cold water and warm water areas and from both hemispheres. [details] Harmful effect: Strains from e.g. Canada, Chile, Denmark and Tunisia has been found to produce domoic acid. The amounts of DA vary from undetectable up to 0.221 pg cell-1. [details] Morphology: P. calliantha belong to the morphological P. pseudodelicatissima-complex, comprising species with narrow valves (ca. 1.5-2.5µm), a central nodule and uniseriate striae. P. calliantha is mainly characterised by * narrow valve width: 1.3-1.8µm * poroids with several sectors (4-10) [details] Taxonomy: P. calliantha has previously been included in P. pseudodelicatissima sensu lato. At least some of the material described as toxic in previous references (as P. pseudodelicatissima) belong to P. calliantha. [details] | ||||||||||
