Diatoms (chain-forming centric and pennate of the complex Pseudo-nitzschia seriata --sensu Hasle, 1965 and some dinoflagellates species (Prorocentrum minimum and Scrippsiella trochoidea) were generally observed in high densities during NTs, when chlorophyll-a concentrations were also high (Figure 3).

The typical forms from this environment are pennate (bilaterally symmetrical) forms of the genera Nitzschia, Amphiprora, and Navicula, but there are also the centric (radially symmetrical) species.
