From regional or thematic species database
Description This species may be synonymous with Polykrikos barnegatensis Martin 1929.
 [details]

Description Cell surface without ridges. Cingulum displaced 1.5-2x width and about one-third length of body.  [details]

Description Chain-forming ellipsoidal cells assembling less than 8 units. Dimensions: 30–40 μm length, 20–30 μm width. Cingulum sinistral and displaced about 0.6 length. The apical groove starts from the anterior junction of the cingulum and sulcus and moves around the apex in clockwise direction. It is estimated that this species is probably identical to ‘Cochlodinium 78’ which caused toxic discoloured waters in Japan (Kyushu Island) in 1978.  [details]

Harmful effect Serious fishkiller, extensive problems especially in Korea [details]
