Abstract
Epifluorescence microscopy was used to distinguish prochlorophytes (lacking phycobilin pigments) from cyanobacteria (containing phycobilin pigments). The relative number of prochlorophytes was counted in phytoplankton samples of four shallow, eutrophic lakes in the Loosdrecht lakes district (The Netherlands). Prochlorophyte dominance in summer (up to 60% of filamentous forms) was found to be related to trophic status.
