“…The species was more abundant in lentic than in lotic environments, but it has never shown high density. Some records of this species in Brazil were formerly made: Manguinhos, State of Rio de Janeiro (Prowazek 1910;Cunha 1913 et al 1990, 1992).…”

“…It was a common species in our samples and more abundant in lakes than in rivers. In Brazil the species was recorded in Manguinhos, State of Rio de Janeiro (Prowazek 1910;Cunha 1913); in the lakes of the Suia Missu River basin, State of Mato Grosso (Green 1975) and in plankton samples of São Francisco River basin, State of Minas Gerais (Dabés 1995).…”

This paper is the result of the study of pigmented Euglenaceae performed within the area of the Jacuí Delta State Park, located between parallels 29º56' and 30º03'S and meridians 51º12'and 51º18'W, with qualitative samplings at 25 stations, distributed over 8 islands, 8 "sacos" (i.e. small bays), 4 river mouths, 2 stream mouths and 3 channels in December/1993 and January/1994, and from February/1998 to December/1999. One hundred and fifty taxa of the Euglenophyceae were identified in the area. Currently 23 specific and infraspecific taxa of genus Euglena and 12 taxa of Lepocinclis are presented. E. acus Ehr. var. acus, and L. salina Fritsch var. salina were the taxa best represented in the region since they occured in over 40% of the samples studied. E. bonettoi (Tell & Zaloc.) Couté & Thérez., L. playfairiana Defl. var. striata Conf. and L. caudata (Cunha) Conr. were recorded exclusively for South America; sixteen taxa identified have a cosmopolitan distribution. Ranges of some abiotic variables of the environments in which each taxon occurred in the study area are mentioned.
“…The first reference to a dinoflagellate collected in Brazil was from Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon, State of Rio de Janeiro, made by Möbius (1889), describing Peridinium tabulatum f. brasilianum Möbius ('brasiliana'; reinterpreted as Bysmatrum subsalsum (Ostenfeld) Faust et Steidinger by Popovský & Pfiester 1990). In the first half of the 20 th century, studies on protozoofauna (dinoflagellates were then considered from a zoological viewpoint) identified some dinoflagellate species (Daday 1905;Prowazek 1910;Cunha 1913;Kleerekoper 1939). With a gap of almost 30 years, new records of this group were made in southeastern (Bicudo & Bicudo 1967;Bicudo & Skvortzov 1968;1970;Bicudo & Ventrice 1968) and northern Brazil (Uherkovich & Schmidt 1974;Uherkovich 1976;1981;Uherkovich & Rai 1979;Uherkovich & Franken 1980).…”
Dinoflagellate taxonomy has been undergoing a comprehensive review in recent decades. Knowledge on Brazilian dinoflagellate flora remains quite incomplete, particularly regarding the size of the country. This study is the first taxonomic survey of freshwater dinoflagellates in the State of Paraná, southern Brazil. Fortyone freshwater environments were sampled in Paraná and two others on the border between Paraná and Santa Catarina during 2010-2015, and 21 dinoflagellate taxa assigned to 13 genera were identified and described based on light (LM) and scanning electron (SEM) microscopy. A new combination is proposed: Parvodinium africanum var. javanicum comb. nov. Three taxa are new records for Brazilian freshwaters: Glenodiniopsis uliginosa, P. africanum var. javanicum and Tyrannodinium edax. Taxonomic and nomenclatural comments about the recorded species as well as their known distribution in Brazil are also given.
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.
