Abstract

A green flagellate of the genus Phacotus with a spherical calcite-lorica was found in field collections from limerich waters in the Baltic Lake District of the G.D.R. LM observations showed wide coincidence with Phacotus lenticularis (EHRENBERG) STEIN var. sphaerica WISLOUCH, described from Poland. SEM examinations demonstrated the autonomous character of this taxon for which the new status Phacotus sphaericus (WISLOUCH) GIERING is suggested.
