Pseudo-nitzschia delicatissima
From Black Sea Phytoplankton checklist
Pseudo-nitzschia delicatissima (P.T. Cleve, 1897) Heiden, 1928
= Nitzschia delicatissima P.T. Cleve, 1897 (mentioned for the Black Sea)
Classification
Chromista (Kingdom) > Ochrophyta (Phylum) > Bacillariophyceae (Class) > Bacillariales (Order) > Bacillariaceae (Family) > Pseudo-nitzschia (Genus)
WoRMS: 149153
Properties
Environment: marine
Habitat: pelagic
Harmful effect: A strain from Canada and one from New Zealand found to produce domoic acid. Other strains examined so far non-toxic.The identity of the New Zealand strain determined only with a probe, not confirmed morphologically.
