Description Theca polyhedral, slightly longer than broad, epitheca conical, shoulders at boundary of apical/precingular plate series, hypotheca rounded, slightly larger than epitheca. Mature thecae strongly reticulated, usually with one trichocyst pore at center of each reticulation. Some cells have broad sutural bands ornamented with longitudinal and transverse ridges. Plate formula typically 4’ (or 2’+*2’), 6’’, 6c, *6’’’, 1p, 1’’’’. First apical plate insert, usually with distinct pore on right anterior margin. Fourth apical plate or homolog of significant size (as large or larger than 3’). Sixth precingular plate five-sided with broadly geniculate anterior margin, does not approach a triangular shape, contacts first apical plate. Cingulum slightly anterior to equator, descending with no overhang, displaced ventrally by about one width, with prominent lists. Sulcus straight, reaching almost to antapex. All features of L-type ventral organization consistently present. First postcingular homolog (*1’’’) small, contained within sulcus. Posterior intercalary plate (1p) long, narrow. Antapical plate (1’’’’) six-sided, trapezoidal, with distinctive arcuate inset at contact with posterior margin of sulcus; contact with 1p shorter than with 6’’’. Sexiform hypothecal tabulation, with antapical tabulation weakly asymmetrical (e.g., von Stosch, 1969) or more strongly asymmetrical (e.g., Reinecke, 1967). Plate 3’’ relatively small, approximately centered on dorsoventral midline. Hypotheca usually dextrally contorted to varying degrees, with *4’’’/*5’’’ boundary displaced to left of 3’’/4’’ boundary at cingulum.

Harmful effect Producer of yessotoxin, which may accumulate in bivalves and is toxic to mice. Effect on humans unknown. There are several cryptic species in this species complex. The parent compound yessotoxin (YTX) is produced by strains of ribotypes A and B, but not by ribotype C strains, which only produced the structural variant homoyessotoxin (homoYTX) (Wang et al. 2019). [details]

Identification Pentaplacodinium lapazense is similar to Protoceratium reticulatum which is more polyhedral and bears a sigmoidal cover plate, as opposed to a roundish and elongated cover plate that widens ventrally in P. lapazense. It differs from the obscure species Protoceratium globosum Kofoid et Michener in that the latter has no pores (Kofoid and Michener, 1911, p. 278, no illustration). [details]

Unreviewed
Synonymy Gómez (2005) is not sure whether or not Protoceratium reticulatum is synonym of Protoceratium splendens [details]
