“…In subtropical environments, Ceratium spp. tend toward higher population growth, as found for C. hirundinella in Argentina (Silverio et al, 2009) and South Africa (Hart & Wragg, 2009), and for C. monoceras Temponeras in the boundary between Macedonia and Greece (Temponeras et al, 2000a). In South America, populations of C. furcoides were observed at a maximum of 41 cells ml -1 during the spring in Riogrande II reservoir (Bustamante-Gil et al, 2012), of 29 cells ml -1 during the winter in Furnas reservoir (Silva et al, 2012), and of 15 cells ml -1 during the fall in Yacyreta ´reservoir (Meichtry de Zaburlin et al, 2014).…”

Ceratium species are not a common component of freshwater phytoplankton in South America. However, these dinoflagellates have often been observed in many water bodies over the past two and a half decades. We investigated Ceratium furcoides' abundance and morphological variation during its initial phase of colonization (2012)(2013) in two subtropical reservoirs in southern Brazil in order to explore which environmental factors were related to the occurrence, persistence and bloom formation of this dinoflagellate in those environments. Biomass of C. furcoides showed a strong seasonal pattern, in which warm seasons led to an increase in population density, resulting in cell-size reduction, while in the cold seasons cells increased in volume. Maximum densities over 2,500 cells ml -1 were observed in spring-summer periods in both reservoirs. C. furcoides' abundance in the studied reservoirs was associated, primarily, with a combination of optimal conditions of temperature, organic matter, and pH, and secondarily, with nutrient availability. The possible factors for the successful colonization performed by C. furcoides across distinct Brazilian waterbodies include good swimming performance, low herbivory pressure, and ability to form dense blooms, as strategies that allow maintenance of populations and effective dispersal.

“…High temperature was the most important variable affecting blooms of dinoflagellates, in lakes (Temponeras et al, 2000;Gligora et al, 2003) as well as in reservoirs (Kawabata & Kagawa, 1988). However, some species prefer low temperature and this coldwater preference can favor bloom formation in cold waters by reduced competition and grazing due to low temperatures (Flaim et al, 2010).…”

Knowledge of dinoflagellate diversity in Brazilian reservoirs is limited, especially in subtropical environments. We investigated as to how nutrients and other environmental variables influenced the biomass of Dinophyceae species in three subtropical ecosystems. The reservoirs Samuara, Faxinal, and São Miguel were sampled fortnightly from 2002 to 2006, and eight dinoflagellate taxa were identified. High temperature was a determining factor for the occurrence of Peridinium africanum Lemmermann. Peridinium umbonatum Stein and P. willei HuitfeldKass required high concentrations of nutrients. P. willei was inversely related to temperature and directly related to nutrients. P. umbonatum Stein var.umbonatum Stein showed the largest range of tolerance toward resources. Durinskia baltica Carty & Cox and Peridinium gatunense Nygaard could be opportunistic, since they did not show any spatial or temporal pattern.

“…El cuerpo está dividido en dos: hipoteca (la parte inferior), que contiene los cuernos antiapicales, y la epiteca (parte superior), cuerno apical de diferentes tamaños. La primera placa apical se contacta con seis o siete placas adyacentes, incluyendo la poscingular (Sournia, 1986;Temponeras et al, 2000;Saldarriaga y Taylor, 2017;Gómez, 2021). Consta de dos géneros: Ceratium (agua dulce) y Tripos (aguas marinas), divididos por el número de placas cingulares, 5C y 4C respectivamente (Sournia, 1986).…”

El presente estudio describe la morfología de diez especies de Tripos recolectadas usando dos redes de fitoplancton de 20 y 50 µm durante siete campañas oceanográficas entre el año 2017 y 2019 en el golfo de Urabá. Se ofrecen observaciones morfológicas y medidas de las especies encontradas, junto con información sobre distribución local y una clave taxonómica. Se registran por primera vez para el golfo de Urabá: Tripos dens, T. extensus, T. gallicus, T. massiliensis, T. muelleri y T. pentagonus. El golfo de Urabá presenta una riqueza de especies baja en comparación con otras áreas del Caribe colombiano.
