On the freshwater dinoflagellates presently included in the genus Amphidinium, with a description of Prosoaulax gen. nov
Udgivelsesdato: February 2005 Amphidinium is a genus of naked dinoflagellates, characterized by a small epicone and a larger hypocone. Presently about 120 species from both freshwater and marine biotopes have been described. The genus has long been known to be poly-phyletic, however, and the recent...
