Description Chain-forming ellipsoidal cells assembling less than 8 units. Dimensions: 30–40 μm length, 20–30 μm width. Cingulum sinistral and displaced about 0.6 length. The apical groove starts from the anterior junction of the cingulum and sulcus and moves around the apex in clockwise direction. It is estimated that this species is probably identical to ‘Cochlodinium 78’ which caused toxic discoloured waters in Japan (Kyushu Island) in 1978. [details]
