Abstract Spiny brown dinoflagellate cysts are commonly used as sea‐ice indicators in the Arctic, but their biological affinities are not well known. We present the first indication of hitherto temperate Protoperidinium tricingulatum in the Arctic based on single‐cell LSU rDNA sequencing from sedimen...
