Freshwater Raphidophyceae from the State of Rio de Janeiro, Southeast Brazil

Abstract: This paper presents a floristic survey of Raphidophyceae (Heterokontophyta) found in three freshwater environments in the municipality of Rio de Janeiro, based on samples collected bimonthly from September 1988 to August 1991. A total of 117 samples were collected, and eight of these contained cells of raphidophytes. Altogether five raphidophyte species, representing the genera Gonyostomum (2), Merotrichia (1), and Vacuolaria (2) were identified. Four species are new records for the State of Rio de Janeiro (G.… Show more

The increasing acidification of waters attributed to climate change may lead to a spread of such forms, with effects on small water bodies as well [ 80 ]; thus, they might even reach cities.…”
