Limnoraphis(图1)

400X total magnification; 20 μm scale bar.

形态

Straight to slightly flexuous filaments; mostly solitary; rarely in small and irregular aggregations; up to 20 μm wide, 宽度一般大于6 μm. Sheaths usually present; firm, colorless, fairly thin, with one trichome per sheath. Trichomes cylindrical; unconstricted to slightly constricted at crosswalls; not narrowed at the ends. Cells always shorter than wide; short and discoid (flattened, coin-like shape). Apical cells widely rounded, sometimes with a slightly thickened outer wall; without a calyptra. 有空中楼阁, but develop irregularly in segments along the length of the trichome; Komárek et al (2013) describe these aerotope-filled portions as looking like darker-colored segments scattered along the length of the trichome. 由于细胞中类胡萝卜素的浓度相对较高,花朵呈黄褐色.

这个属是最近才从 螺旋藻; the presence of aerotopes and planktic nature of Limnoraphis distinguish it from 螺旋藻 (Komárek et al . 2013).

生态

浮游或形而上于湖泊、水库. 在美国,据报道来自北部湖泊. Limnoraphis罗布斯塔 在美洲西海岸(从加利福尼亚到秘鲁)附近的湖泊中形成水华。.
