Identification Although here included in the genus Prymnesium this species differs markedly form other species of Prymnesium,in the list. Cells are ovoid-pear shaped and 6-12 micrometer long. The two flagella are 2-3 times cell length and the stiff, uncoiling haptonema is 1-1½ cell length when fully extended. Cells are covered with four types of organic scales, which are species characteristic. For critical identification to species level, the scales need to be examined, using transmission electron microscopy. In preserved samples, scales scales may have been shed, in which case molecular sequencing is required for identification. [details]
