Notes		Distribution: Widely distributed in arctic, temperate and subtropical waters [details] Harmful effect: A strain from Canada and one from New Zealand found to produce domoic acid. Other strains examined so far non-toxic.The identity of the New Zealand strain determined only with a probe, not confirmed morphologically. [details] Type locality: Not designated but material collected in the North Atlantic, Spitzbergen and Sweden. Since type material does not exist, Hasle in Br. Phycol. J. 11, 101-110 (1976) selected a neotype from den Helder in the Netherlands. [details]
