Abstract

Abstract Investigations carried out in neritic waters of the north east of the Golfe de Gascogne revealed a phytoplanktonic species of centric diatom new among the algal microflora of the French Atlantic coasts: Coscinodiscus wailesii Gran & Angst. Information on the occurrence of this species obtained from planktonologists in several parts of the world confirm some of its ecological characteristics and bring distributional data up to date. Two hypotheses are proposed with respect to the occurrence of this species along the European coast.
