Thalassiosira duostra (Bacillariophyta), a new for the flora of Russia freshwater diatom species

The study of archive materials has made it possible to specify species composition of the genus Thalassiosira and discover a new for the flora of Russia representative of centric diatoms, T. duostra, in Cheboksary and Tsimlyansk reservoirs and the Oka River. The valve diameter and number of central futoportulae in the examined material differ insignificantly from the original description and published data. By the general valve outline, structure and arrangement of central and marginal fultoportulae and quantitative characteristics, T. duostra is very similar to Gonticribra weissflogii and Thalassiosira faurii, which may result in inaccurate identification of these species. In the Q,onticribra weissflogii the rimoportula is located not in a ring of marginal fultoportulae but closer to the valve center and its internal part is significantly larger than in Thalassiosira duostra. The external arrangement of marginal fultoportulae (tubes of the processes are outwardly directed at different angles) and their internal arrangement (the processes are arranged in two rings, they are more dense in the ring which is closer to the valve face) is a good specific feature that differentiates T. duostra and T. faurii.

Abstract. The study of archive materials has made it possible to specify species composition of the genus Thalassiosira and discover a new for the flora of Russia representative of centric diatoms, T. duostra, in Cheboksary and Tsimlyansk reservoirs and the Oka River. The valve diameter and number of central futoportulae in the examined material differ insignificantly from the original description and published data. By the general valve outline, structure and arrangement of central and marginal fultoportulae and quantitative characteristics, T. duostra is very similar to Conticribra weissflogii and Thalassiosira faurii, which may result in inaccurate identification of these species. In the Conticribra weissflogii the rimoportula is located not in a ring of marginal fultoportulae but closer to the valve center and its internal part is significantly larger than in Thalassiosira duostra. The external arrangement of marginal fultoportulae (tubes of the processes are outwardly directed at different angles) and their internal arrangement (the processes are arranged in two rings, they are more dense in the ring which is closer to the valve face) is a good specific feature that differentiates T. duostra and T. faurii.

Резюме. Изучение архивных материалов позволило уточнить видовой состав рода Thalassiosira и выявить в Чебоксарском и Цимлянском водохранилищах и в р. Оке новый для флоры России вид центрических диатомовых водорослей T. duostra. В исследованном материале диаметр створки и число центральных выростов незначительно отличались от первоописания и литературных данных. По общему абрису створки, строению и расположению центральных и краевых выростов, количественным признакам T. duostra имеет большое сходство с Conticribra weissflogii и Thalassiosira faurii, что может привести к неточной идентификации этих видов. У Conticribra weissflogii двугубый вырост располагается не в кольце краевых выростов, а ближе к центру створки и его внутренняя часть значительно больше таковой, чем у Thalassiosira duostra. Хорошим отличительным признаком между T. duostra и T. faurii является расположение краевых выростов с наружной поверхности (трубки выростов направлены наружу под разными углами) и внутренней поверхности (в виде двух колец, при этом в ближнем к лицевой части створки выросты расположены чаще).

Among tens of species of the genus а Thalassiosira Cl. known for Russia only six species according to Makarova (1988) occur in freshwater waterbodies and watercourses: T. bramaputrae (Ehrenberg) Hakansson et Locker, T. guillardii Hasle, T. inserta Makarova, T. proschkinae Makarova, T. pseudonana Hasle et Heimdal, T. weissflogii (Grunow) Fryxell et Hasle. Two more species of this genus have been recorded in the Volga reservoirs later — T. faurii (Gasse) Hasle и T. gessneri Hustedt (Genkal, Korneva, 2001). Recently, Conticribra Stachura-Sushoples et Williams has been described as a new genus, and two species from those listed above have been transferred to this genus: C. guillardii (Hasle) Stachura-Sushoples et Williams and C. weissflogii (Grunow) Stachura-Sushoples et Williams (Stachura-Sushoples, Williams, 2009). In representatives of this genus, areolae from the internal valve surface are ravered with semicontinuous cribra and the rimoportula on the valve mantle replaces a fultopor-tula. Later on, the analysis of published data and materials on the alga, previously referred to T. bramaputrae in the Russian literature, has shown that its records belong to another species of the genus — T. lacustris (Grunow) Hasle (Genkal, 2011).

Talassiosira duostra Pienaar was described from the Vaal River in South Africa (Pie-naar, Pieterse, 1990). The species is characterized by the presence of central fultoportu-lae, located eccentrically and valve face areolae arranged in fascicles. Later this species was recorded in European waterbodies and watercourses (Kiss etal, 2001, 2012; Woital, Kwandrans, 2006; Perez et al, 2009). T. duostra is characterized as a freshwater, probably mesogalobic species that occurs in eutrophic lakes and rivers (Kiss et al., 2012). By valve morphology, T. duostra is similar to T. weissflogii and T. faurii. In some cases, this causes inaccuracies in T. weissflogii identification in waterbodies and watercourses of Russia (Genkal, Golokolenova, 2008; Genkal, Kulikovsky, 2009; Genkal, Okhapkin, 2013).

This study, based on archive materials collected by the author, aims at specifying the species composition of the genus Thalassiosira in waterbodies and watercourses of the Russian Federation.

Material and Methods

Phytoplankton samples for this study were collected from Cheboksar (July 1981), Tsimlyansk (July 2007) reservoirs and the Oka River (July-August 2011).

Diatom frustules were cleaned from the organic matter by cold burning (Balonov, 1975) with sulphuric acid and potassium dichromate. Cleaned specimens were dried onto stubs, coated with gold using an EIKO-IB-3 sputter coater and examined using a JSM-25S scanning electron microscope operating at 15 kV.

Results and Discussion

In studied material, we found isolated valves of T. duostra with a valve diameter ranging from 23.6 to 30 jm, and round, randomly arranged, valve areolae (Plate I, 3). Externally, central fultoportulae appear as circular openings, slightly rising above

Plate I. Thalassiosira duostra (1-4), Conticribra weissflogii (5, 6). 1-3 — external view of the valve (arrows central fultoportulae), 4, 6 — internal view of the valve (arrows rimoportula and central fultoportulae), 5 — external view of the valve (arrows rimoportula). Scale bars: 1-3, 5, 6 — 5 |im; 4 — 10 |im.

the valve surface (Pl. I, 1-3) and internally — as short tubes surrounded by four pores. The number of central fultoportulae varies from 3 to 9 and the processes are arranged in a circle (Plate I, 1-3). There is a ring of 7-11 marginal fultoportulae in 10 |im at the junction of the valve face and the valve mantle (Plate I, 1-4). Externally, they appear as along tube, internally — as ashort tube surrounded by four pores (Plate I, 1-4). The rimoportula is located in the ring of marginal fultoportulae (Plate I, 4). Externally, this process appears as along tube of the same size as the marginal fultoportulae, internally — as a small radially oriented fissure (Plate I, 4). We found the internal surface of only one valve in the analyzed material with some marginal fultoportulae and one rimoportula. The second process was likely to be covered with mud.

In our material, maximum valve diameter and number of central fultoportulae are greater than in the literature (Table 1). According to the original description, the central fultoportulae are eccentrically located, V of the valve radius apart, often in groups of 2, 3 or 4 processes (Pienaar, Pieterse, 1990). Valves with two and up to six processes have been recorded in the natural Brazil population. The processes on the valve are arranged in one or several groups. The same number of central fultoportulae is observed in the culture, with similar arrangement as in the natural population but often almost at the valve margin (Torgan et al, 2006). Some researchers give a higher number of central processes in T. duostra and present pictures with the fultoportulae arrangement similar to ours (Kiss et al., 2012: Fig.6 A, B). Our data on the shape of areolae, number of marginal fultoportulae in 10 |im, number of rimoportulae and location of the latter corresponds to the published data (Table 1). Arrangement of valve face areolae in fascicles (or sectors) is one of the main diagnostic features of T. duostra (Table 1). However, in LM and SEM images presented in the original description (Pienaar, Pie-terse, 1990: Figs 1-3) as well as in other publications (Torgan et al., 2004; Kiss et al, 2012), no distinct arrangement of areolae in sectorsis can be seen. Also, as opposed to the natural population, a random arrangement of valve areolae has been recorded in the culture of T. duostra (Table 1).

By the general valve outline in internal and external views and arrangement of central fultoportulae T. duostra is similar to Conticribra weissflogii (Plate I, 5, 6; Genkal, Kulikovsky, 2009). The main quantitative diagnostic features of these species coincide too (Table 2). It should be noted that Thalassiosira duostra, T. faurii and Conticribra weissflogii can be present together in samples (Genkal, Golokolenova, 2008; Genkal, Okhapkin, 2013), that causes some problems in the identification of these morphologically similar species. For that reason, in some cases, Thalassiosira duostra valves were identified as Conticribra weissflogii (Genkal, Kulikovsky, 2009: Fig. 2: 2, 3, 7; Genkal, Golokolenova, 2008: Fig. 5: 8; Genkal, Okhapkin, 2013: Fig. 2b). The position and structure of rimoportula is a good differential characteristic of Thalassiosira duostra and Conticribra weissflogii (compare Plate I, 4, 6). By the general valve outline in internal and external views and arrangement of central fultoportulae T. duostra is similar to T. faurii (Genkal et al., 2007).

coincide in these two species well (Table 2). Kiss et al. (2001, Figs 1, 2) illustrate T. duostra with SEM images. In our opinion, these are pictures of T. faurii, since the external tubes of marginal fultoportulae are directed at different angles. In the work by Roubeix et al. (2014) there is a description of T. faurii and illustrations of a form very similar to T. duostra. The external arrangement of marginal fultoportulae (tubes of the processes are outwardly directed at different angles) and their internal arrangement (the processes are arranged in two rings, they are more dense in the ring which is closer to the valve face) is a good specific feature that differentiate T. duostra and T. faurii (Genkal et al, 2007).
