| Abstract: | Phytoplankton samples obtained from 10 localities in Korea (Democratic People's Republic of Korea, DPRK) have been examined by means of electron microscopy. 27 species of silica-scaled chrysophytes (Chrysophyceae and Synurophyceae) have been identified, belonging to the genera Chrysosphaerella, Spiniferomonas, Paraphysomo-nas, Mallomonas , and Synura. Almost all of these species are new to Korea, only two of them have with certainty been found there before. |
