Nice one!!!
Are those cells at the right of Pseudo-nitzschia?
Yes, there were two cells and they were gliding back and forth past the D. fragilissimus chain. Those cells are so narrow I could not get a good picture of them with this set-up. I also saw a nice Rhizosolenia setigera cell but those are even thinner and it just looks like a bright line in the photos I took
Grreat post thank you
