First Report of Pseudo-nitzschia calliantha Lundholm, Moestrup & Hasle 2003, a New Potentially Toxic Species from Turkish Coasts
Abstract
Several species of the diatom Pseudo-nitzschia H. PeragalIo in H. & M. PeragalIo, 1897-1908 are known to produce domoic acid (DA), a neurotoxic amino acid that has been shown to be responsible for deaths of higher trophic-level organisms, including humans, in many areas around the world. In this study, one of the potentially toxic Pseudonitzschia species, P. calliantha, is documented for the first time from the Turkish Part of the Black Sea using transmission and scanning electron microscopy. P. calliantha is described based on morphological data.
