• Description:
  Chrysochromulina (Haptophyta) species are recognized as seminal contributors to marine and freshwater ecosystem function. Historically, scale vestiture is used to augment taxonomic identification of these algae, and a large literature exists concerning the morphology of many scale-covered representatives. Scale-less freshwater isolates present a new challenge. Details concerning the microanatomy of naked cells remain essentially unreported. Insight into morphological similarities/differences between scaled and naked cells provides information on the evolution of the taxon, especially as discussions defining cryptic species complexes become more germane. Using light, scanning, and transmission microscopy, we present an analysis of the cellular structure for three Chrysochromulina freshwater isolates.
