New record for a dinoflagellate species (Gonyaulax pacifica Kofoid) from Turkish coastal waters (Northeastern Mediterranean Sea

Dinoflagellat üyesi Gonyaulax cinsine ait Gonyaulax pacifica Kofoid, Türkiye'nin kuzeydoğu Akdeniz kıyısal sularından ilk kez rapor edilmiştir. Bu tür aynı zamanda tüm Türkiye kıyısal suları için de yeni kayıttır. Bu türün morfolojik özellikleri detaylı olarak açıklanmış, ekolojik ve biyocoğrafık dağılımları ile ilgili bilgiler verilmiştir.

Türkiye Kıyısal sularında (Kuzeydoğu Akdeniz) dinoflagellatlardan (Gonyaulax pacifica Kofoid) yeni bir kayıt

The dinoflagellate species Gonyaulax padfica Kofoid is reported for the first time from northeastern Mediterranean coast of Turkey; it has not previously been reported for any Turkish coastal waters. The morphological characteristics of this species are described in detail and information about its ecological and biogeographical distribution is given.
