Benthic Marine Cyanophyceae from Kwa-Zulu Natal, South Africa
註釋The marine Cyanophyceae of southern Africa are poorly known. Several marine substrata, along the Kwa-Zulu Natal Coast (South Africa) have been examined for cyanophytes. Enrichment cultures were prepared using Provasoli's enriched culture medium, and incubated under 20°C and 2Omumol.m-2 sect. Sixty-six taxa were identified. Eight failed to grow in either enrichment or unialgal cultures. Two of these were studied based only on the enrichment cultures and six only on the wild material. The sixty-six taxa belong to three orders, fourteen families and thirty-four genera. This study strongly shows that some characteristics used in the taxonomy of the Cyanophyceae are not stable and may vary depending on the environmental/cultural conditions under which the specimen grows.
