An undescribed marine prasinophyte, Pyramimonas tychotreta , sp. nov., was isolated from a water sample collected near the ice edge in the Weddell Sea (Antarctica) and is characterized by means of light and electron microscopy. This is the second described Antarctic species in the genus and it posse...
