A dune pond and the first records of Desmidiaceae (Zygnematophyceae) in Sergipe, Brazil

Revista de Biologia Neotropical, 2020
Desmidiaceae (Zygnematophyceae) is represented in Brazil by 27 genera and about 485 species. Studies which complement taxonomic information and geographic distribution of desmids have advanced in the country; however, six states, including Sergipe, have ...

How do I publish the name of a new species of algae? A basic guide

Journal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 749-756, June 2026.
Abstract A basic guide to the requirements of the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants for the publication of a valid name of new species (and infraspecific taxa) of living algae is provided. It is intended to aid phycologists so that an accurate inventory of the world's algal diversity is achieved.

Phytoplankton Under Pressure: Temperature, Precipitation and Cyanobacterial Blooms as Drivers of Chytrid Infections

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
Chytrid parasites of phytoplankton infect a wide range of species, including green algae, diatoms, and cyanobacteria. Infection patterns varied, indicating that chytrid occurrence is highly dynamic in space and time. Warmer temperatures, increased rainfall and cyanobacterial bloom events coincided with enhanced infection prevalence on green algae ...

Light spectrum matters: Interactive effects of light and nutrients on phytoplankton communities and trophic transfer

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 11, Page 3313-3327, November 2025.
Overall, our results showed that the spectral quality of light has a significant impact on phytoplankton community dynamics and the biochemical composition of lake seston. Moreover, the results suggest that light intensity, light spectrum, and nutrients interactively act at the base of aquatic food webs with propagating effects to herbivores ...

Nature of Phytoplankton Communities in the Southern Hemisphere Shallow Lakes, With an Emphasis on the Presence of Submerged Aquatic Vegetation: A Review

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 3, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Differences in the ecological stability of shallow lakes are reflected in the functional nature of the distinct phytoplankton communities in the Southern Hemisphere. Recent studies have highlighted growing uncertainties of the previous concepts regarding phytoplankton cosmopolitanism, suggesting these communities may be more regionally ...

Broad‐range necrophytophagy in the flagellate Orciraptor agilis (Viridiraptoridae, Cercozoa) and the underappreciated role of scavenging among protists

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 72, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
Abstract Protists show diverse lifestyles and fulfill important ecological roles as primary producers, predators, symbionts, and parasites. The degradation of dead microbial biomass, instead, is mainly attributed to bacteria and fungi, while necrophagy by protists remains poorly recognized.

A New Dawn for Protist Biogeography

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 33, Issue 12, December 2024.
ABSTRACT Aim Biogeographers have believed for a long time that the geographical distributions of protists are only determined by environmental conditions, because dispersal is not limited. During the past two decades, the field has come a long way to show that historical and spatial factors also significantly contribute to shaping protist distributions,
