Atlas of Phytoplankton

The Atlas of Phytoplankton provides a reference point for marine, transitional and freshwater scientists and students involved in phytoplankton identification and classification. It includes illustrative cards with information about i) taxonomy, with pictures and schematic drawings, information on similar species and/or synonyms, references; ii) ecological characteristics and geographical distribution of species; and iii) morphological features, such as shape association, linear dimensions association and formulae for cell volume and surface computation thanks to the integration with the Atlas of Shapes.
