Gonyaulax verior was initially described as Amylax diacantha from Belgian coastal waters a century ago but its detailed morphology needed restudy. Here, we established nine strains of G. verior by germinating cysts or isolating cells from localities from the European Atlantic to the Caspian Sea and the Pacific Ocean. Both cyst and thecal morphology were examined by light and scanning electron microscopy. SSU, LSU and/or ITS-5.8S rRNA gene sequences were obtained from all strains. Cells of G. verior have a plate formula of Po, 4′, 2a, 6-7′′, 6C, 6S, 6′′′, 1p, 1′′′′ with an L-type ventral organisation, characterised by two either straight or curved antapical horns of variable length. Cysts of G. verior are oval, smooth and contain one or two yellow... |

Escalera et al. (2018. Phycologia 57: 453–464) concluded that Gonyaulax hyalina and G. fragilis were the same species. Here, the morphologies of G. hyalina and G. fragilis were restudied in field samples from different parts of the World Ocean. Results showed that Escalera et al. did not observe G. fragilis, as all strains used in their study belong to one species, G. hyalina. In consequence, it is hereby proposed that the two taxa remain as separate species until further genetic studies are carried out. Additionally, the interpretation of the anterior sulcal plate as unique within gonyaulacoids is considered here inaccurate, as the plate pattern of both species is similar to other species of Gonyaulax, e.g. G. polygramma. We also show that both species... |
