Description Cells are slightly laterally compressed, globular in shape, surface smooth. Thecal pores are numerous. Apical pore plate oval containing fish-hook shaped pore. [details]

Harmful effect Strain NOAA3 from Belize found to produce the ciguatoxin 2,3-dihydroxyCTX3C (as Gambierdiscus toxicus ) (Roeder et al. 2010) [details]

Identification This species is highly similar to F. yasumotoi. It is distinguished by a combination of morphometric features, the cell length, depth and width, and the size and shape of the 2’’’’ plate, detailed in Litaker et al. (2009).  [details]
