Planktonic diatoms of the Zuari estuary, Goa (west coast of India)
@inproceedings{Redekar2000PlanktonicDO, title={Planktonic diatoms of the Zuari estuary, Goa (west coast of India)}, author={P. D. Redekar and A. B. Wagh}, year={2000} }
During the studies on fouling diatoms in Zuary estuary the overlying surface diatoms were also studied for comparison. In all 66 spp. of planktonic diatoms have been recorded, belonging to 29 genera. Out of these, 36 species (16 genera) were Pennales and 30 (13 genera) Centrales. The common diatoms observed were Chaetoceros borealis, C. decipiens, Biddulphia regia, B. sinensis, Coscinodiscus conscinnus, C. subtilis, C. grani, Navicula inflexa, N. oblonga, Amphora turgida, A. ovalis, Nitzschia…
