“…The distribution data (Table I, Fig. 105) indicate that though some species have a disjunct distribution, dystrophic waters are strongholds of the dinoftageUates in Tasmania, as they are for other flagellates, including several new species of chrysophytes (Croome & Tyler, 1985, 1986a, 1986b, 1988Croome, Ling & Tyler, 1988 (KJrkpatrick & Tyler,t987) for the scientific merit of these sites. That dystrophic waters are so favourable for dinoflagellates in Tasmania is remarkable.…”

“…102. SEM of Prorocentrum playfairi, Lake Garcia (12) [from Croome & Tyler (1986a) Tasmania's surface waters have been classified on chemical criteria (Buckney & Tyler, 1973) and on underwater light climate (Bowling, Steane & Tyler, 1986), the two being congruent in large measure. In the latter case, the overwhelming determinant of lake type is the quantity of gilvin (Kirk, 1976) (=gelbstoff, colour).…”

Tasmania has many polyhumic lakes with a wealth of phytoflagellates, especially chromophytes. Dystrophic coastal lagoons, such as Lake Garcia, are rich habitats of the Chrysophyta and Dinophyta, containing a number of new or rare species. In meromictic Lake Fidler and Sulphide Pool flagellates and prokaryotes are permanently zoned in a finely structured array astride the redoxcline. In the mixolimnetic waters phytoflagellates are zoned and probably perform regular migrations. Chaoborus larvae migrate daily. In monomictic, polyhumic Lake Chisholm there is probably a permanent zonation of flagellates and prokaryotes about the long-lasting thermocline, with diel migrations of other species in the epilimnion. With its numerous new or rare species Tasmania is a phytoflagellate haven.

“…There is no reason to believe that the New Zealand flora of silica-scaled chrysophytes is more depauperate than in Australia (Croome & Tyler 1983a, b, c, 1985a, b, 1986, 1988Croome et al 1985;Dtirrschmidt & Croome 1985). Moreover, detailed knowledge of the flora is a necessary precondition for using these organisms as an aid to water quality assessments or palaeoecological and palaeoclimatological studies (Kristiansen 1986b, c;Siver & Hamer 1990;Siver 1991;Smol in press).…”

Twenty-three species of silica-scaled Chrysophyceae were collected during late spring and summer from freshwater habitats in New Zealand and identified by examination of their scales with the transmission electron microscope. Four genera, Mallomonas and Synura (Mallomonadaceae), andParaphysomonas and Spiniferomonas (Paraphysomonadaceae), were represented. The four species of Spiniferomonas, along with 11 species and one form in the other three genera, are reported for the first time. All the species found have distributions that are cosmopolitan or nearly so. A total of 42 species in three genera of Mallomonadaceae and two genera of Paraphysomonadaceae are now known in New Zealand. The flora consists both of cosmopolitan species and those so far known only from New Zealand, and probably is still significantly under-represented. Detailed knowledge of the New Zealand flora is necessary if silica-scaled chrysophytes are to be used in palaeoecological studies, or as an aid to water quality assessments.
