Distribution: Widely distributed in temperate and subtropical waters. A few findings from tropical waters. See list of distribution in Hasle (2002): Are most of the domoic acid-producing species of the diatom genus Pseudo-nitzschia cosmopolites? Harmful Algae 1: 137-146. [details]
Harmful effect: Produces domoic acid and isodomoic acid C. See Garrison et al (1992) and Holland et al (2005) [details]
Morphology:
* valve width: 5.5-8µm
* 2 rows of poroids
