Description Lens-shaped, anterio-posteriorly compressed. Thecal surface smooth, covered with evenly distributed fine pores. Apical pore plate oval containing fish-hook shaped pore. Ratio between the 2’/3’ and 2’/4’ suture lengths is 2.3, much higher than in other lenticular species of Gambierdiscus. [details]

Description Lens-shaped, anterio-posteriorly compressed. Thecal surface smooth, covered with evenly distributed fine pores. Apical pore plate oval containing fish-hook shaped pore. Ratio between the 2’/3’ and 2’/4’ suture lengths is 2.3, much higher than in other lenticular species of Gambierdiscus. [details]Harmful effect This species has been found to produce ciguatoxin- and maitotoxin-like compounds (Fraga et al. 2011) [details] |
