A check list of the marine species of dinoflagellates reported from coastal and oceanic Colombian Caribbean Sea is presented. The list is based on the revision of bibliographical information available from studies developed on phytoplanktonic community. It reports a total of 186 taxa corresponding to 169 species with 27 varieties and six forms. These are grouped in 32 genera, 17 families, six orders, and two classes. The taxonomic classification was based on the system proposed by Fensome et al. (1993).
We conducted a literature review of available information on the species of marine (Bacillariophyta) diatoms reported for coastal and ocean Colombian Caribbean Sea. We present a checklist of 337 taxones for 312 species, 19 varieties and seven forms, grouped into 54 families and 106 genera. The taxonomic classification was based on the system proposed by Round et al. (1990).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
